A string of beautiful women gruesomely murdered. A cardinal slowly dying from poison in the Vatican. Deranged painter Vali Tesio leaves a trail of brutality across Europe in his quest to draw Jon Vegham from hiding. But just as archeologist Ornella Grazzi finds a mysterious resemblance between the reclusive billionaire who's just hired her and the age-old mummy she's been studying, she receives a call from Maria, the kindly nun who once saved her life: Jon Vegham is not to be trusted! The roots of these feuds and enigmas go back to ancient Rome, and Cassio's struggle against his lifelong enemies.

Anastasia: Part 2
Anastasia was just a little girl when she first came to Los Angeles with her mother in 1926, to pursue her mother's dream of conquering Hollywood. But it wasn't her mother under the spotlights--it was her. She became the star her mother wanted, but at a terrible price. The fame that endears her to millions also puts her in shackles, at the mercy of those who control her. How long will it take before she cracks? And what will she do then? This is a story that calls into question the so-called golden era of Hollywood, when the "dream factory" resembled a Byzantine empire, above the law and fed by vanity and greed.

Cassio 6 The Call to Suffering
Cassio may have the ear and favor of Emperor Antoninus, but it's made him more enemies than friends: his aunt's former lover, the Praetorian guardsman Erytheos; the powerful Senator Lernus, father of Cassio's childhood enemy Livion; and even Cassio's faithful former slave Alva. Once she's freed, she joins a plot to take down the very emperor Cassio is trying to save. But Cassio isn't all alone. He's reunited with an old flame, the Apis priestess Oasis. With their rekindled passions, Cassio's magic powders, and the ability of Oasis to see the future, will they triumph over Rome's many traps and betrayals?

Anastasia: Part 1
1926. A mother and her young daughter come to Los Angeles. The mother is chasing her dream: she wants to conquer Hollywood, no matter the cost. Her little girl, Anastasia, is the perfect candidate to be cinema's next big star. But can she stand the pressure? The clash of dreams and the dirty reality of show business is a heavy burden to bear, as Anastasia comes face to face with the crime, abuse, and murky secrets of an all-powerful industry. A story that calls into question the so-called golden era of Hollywood, when the "dream factory" resembled a Byzantine empire, above the law and fed by vanity and greed."If Sunset Boulevard is the gold standard for this type of story, Anastasia wraps in arthouse and exploitation elements that drive home the inherent melodrama and add a lurid quality to it, making it feel close to a David Lynch film not just in surrealist touches but philosophically as well, making jarring use of the very exploitation it criticizes to make the viewer (or reader in this case) question their own involvement with this process. It becomes a jarring and disturbing feminist statement." Comics Beat
