 BRAND NEW!!!
BE KIND, REWIND: A Graphic Novel About a VHS Tape of a Movie About Dachshunds 
Seventeen years in the making! Terrorists tried to kill it! But finally, it's here... Remember when you could rent movies on VHS at the grocery store?
What would you do if you found a rental tape in an abandoned cart in the parking lot? Would you return it? Keep it? Watch it and then return it? Sell it on eBay and give the money to charity? Murder someone with it and leave it behind as evidence? In this book, we explore the many shades of gray in between, as well as the horrifyingly colorful possibilities outside of the most sensible responses.

THE PSYCHEDELIC MENAGERIE
At The Zü Sunday Comics and/or Coloring Book
Let's go way back to the psychedelic '90s, when comics existed in things called "newspapers." Pretty wild, right? Well, here are a few years of Ron Ruelle's "At the Zü" Sunday strips from those funny pages, along with his online post-syndication weekly strip "Darwin & Co." If you were in the right frame of mind back then, you might have even seen these in color. If not... grab your crayons and go crazy, man. Either way, enjoy your trip to the Zü! THE CARTOONS IN THIS BOOK ARE PRINTED IN GLORIOUS, VIVID BLACK AND WHITE.

NON-HUMAN RESOURCES
At the Zü Daily Comic Strips Volume 2
Beasts of burden come in all stripes and colors. There's the disgruntled underling, the scheming old timer, the obsolete dinosaur, and the vacuous slacker, to name a few. You'll find all of them here at ZüCorp, along with the saddest one of all... the underpaid, overworked, unappreciated zookeeper/supervisor. This is the second collection of the syndicated comic strip "At The Zü" which ran in papers worldwide from 1995-1998 (and online for a few years after that).

120 HOURS
A Collection of 24 Hour Comics Challenge Stories
They say nothing good happens after midnight. Participants in the Denver 24 Hour Comics Challenge might disagree. We have to disagree. We need good things to happen. Rules for the event are simple: You show up at the designated time and place with your art supplies. You are given a topic. You then have 24 hours to create a complete, coherent, 24 page comic story.
This book contains five stories by Ron Ruelle, each one lovingly
crafted (or hurriedly scribbled) within those parameters. In this
volume you will find tales of zombie space aliens, possessed bobble head dolls, hostile stuffed animals, evil twins, eight-year-old forensic detectives, and other things that only come to mind at ridiculous hours of the night.
It also features the story "The Rubber Band Theory of the Universe," which has never been published elsewhere, and four other stories that also appear in previous, hard-to-find 24HCC compilations.

FOOD, SHELTER, CABLE
The Comic Necessities of Rex Silo
Rex Silo is a member of a species called cartoonist obscurus, an all-too-common type of starving artist known to cannibalize his own work (as well as that of others) for tasty, nourishing, and hopefully profitable ideas. (Some folks even claim they have never seen Rex and Ron in the same place at the same time. Hmmmmm...) In addition to the necessities of Food, Shelter, and Cable, the comics in this book are full of vulgarity, profanity, nudity, hostility, and all kinds of -ity things and should not be read by anyone under the age of thirty. Occasionally, the cartoons are sensitive and touching, but they're usually the bad kind of touch. READER DISCRETION IS STRONGLY ENCOURAGED!

An Assortment Of Unrelated Comic Stories
IN COLOR! A disgruntled chauffeur, a rat-infested
village, a crumbling old man, a narcissistic game show contestant, a zoologically Christian coloring book... What do all of things these have in common?
Not much, really. Except they are all the subjects of recent comic stories created by Ron Ruelle.
Some of these tales were cranked out under the auspices of the 24 Hour Comics Challenge, while others were written for anthologies with a specific focus as an assignment.
Some have been published before, most have not.
Most are all-ages appropriate, but a couple are a tad raunchy for the little ones. Sorry, kids! Really, this stuff is all over the map! READER DISCRETION IS ENCOURAGED!
