Crafted in the shapes of submarines, planes, trains, cars, and horses, one of the most popular motifs was toy robots. Constructed in virtually every shape imaginable from the 1940s throughout the 1960s, they ranged in appearance from horror to science fiction characters. Today, these toys are not only fondly remembered by collectors but are being re-created for a whole new generation! Capturing this period in history became a passion for painter Eric Joyner and in Robots and Donuts he celebrates this forgotten era with images marrying the metal creations with images plucked from his imagination. And, almost always, with donuts. (Why? Well, who doesn't love donuts?) This whimsical book also features a look into Joyner's painting style as well as a glimpse at some of his other non-robot-themed artwork. * Includes a signed-and-numbered tip-in sheet featuring an exclusive image not in the regular edition softcover! * Robots and Donuts: The Art of Eric Joyner appeals to both robot lovers and lowbrow art aficionados! * With 176 oversize, full-color pages, this beautiful book is a great value!

Mysteries emerge during Solomon Kane's stay in the Castle of the Devil--the beasts that prey upon the local peasantry make their presence known, and another body is discovered.

Did a devil--worshiping monk really die there at the hands of his brothers, or was there something even more sinister afoot? And what lives down there now? Expands upon Robert E. Howard's unfinished "Castle of the Devil." "With art and writing that perfectly captures the pulp weirdness of his birth, Solomon Kane officially becomes the only Puritan I've ever been a fan of.
