Fetish Bubblegirls
Fetish Bubblegirls presents the work of internationally recognized graffiti artist Tilt in an unabashedly new, colorful, and playful volume.

Introduction by David Cronenberg.

The Ticking
The story of Edison Steelhead, a boy who at birth takes his mother's life and his father's deformed face.

Waiting for him on its alien shores are the sights and experiences that will give shape to both his future and his past.
