Tom’s taste for police officers and felons—and for sexual tension
between the two—developed late in his career. “I’ve never been to
prison,” he told a class at the California Institute of the Arts in
1985, “but I hear it’s a closed world where there are different
roles and people behave different from when they walk free. It
fascinates me. It is another subject I come back to again and
again.” By which he meant fantasized about again and again, since
only those subjects that aroused him sexually made it into his
art.The uniforms of the California Highway Patrol motorcyclists
were his favorite: tan and tight, with high boots and soft black
leather gauntlet gloves. He created his own uniform variants as
well, a cross between military and civilian police gear, and
invented suitably butch criminals for his cops to apprehend, though
once apprehended the power struggle could go either way. Tom was
determined to show top and bottom as equally masculine roles, and
his cops were as likely to end up happily speared by criminal cock
as delivering corrective coitus. Though criticized by some for what
appeared to be a glorification of power, Tom was always quick to
remind that the world he created was a fantasy world, where
anything was possible, and everything was consensual—even in
prison.The Little Book of Tom: Cops &,amp, Robbers explores
Tom’s fascination with criminal justice through a mixture of
multi-panel comics and single-panel drawings and paintings, all in
a compact and affordable 192 pages. Historic film stills and
posters, personal photos of Tom, sketches, and Tom’s own reference
photos make this far more than another Tom’s Comics re-tread.

závislosti, ktorej prepadli čitatelia po celom svete, Trón zo skla!
Aelin Galathynius sa zaprisahala, že zachráni svoj ľud, aj keď
cena, ktorú za to treba zaplatiť, je nepredstaviteľne vysoká. Keď
ju kráľovná férov Maeve uväzní v starodávnej železnej truhle a
niekoľko mesiacov mučí, jedinou nádejou na prežitie je len Aelinina
ohnivá vôľa a strašná istota, že ak ju Maeve zlomí, bude to
znamenať skazu pre jej milovaných. S každým ďalším dňom však jej
pevné odhodlanie nepoddať sa čoraz viac slabne... Kým je Aelin v
zajatí, jej priateľov a spojencov osud zaveje na všetky svetové
strany. Niektoré putá sa posilnia, iné sa spretŕhajú naveky. A keď
sa ich cesty znovu spoja, všetci musia bojovať, ak Erilea nemá
padnúť. V napínavom záverečnom diele svetového bestselleru od Sarah
J. Maas bude musieť Aelin zviesť posledný, najťažší boj pre
záchranu seba samej – a pre prísľub lepšieho sveta.
