Animal cruelty is the most pervasive form of torture in the modern world. The heroes who fight it don't wear capes, they wear ski-masks. Whether it's vicious dog-fighting clubs or senseless lab experiments force-feeding oven cleaners to monkeys, Jeanette Francis and Damon Guerrero have had enough. Using any and all means available to them, Jeanette and Damon not only rescue the animals but also avenge them - delivering harsh retribution to the animals' captors and tormentors. This book collects Liberator issues #1-4 into a single volume for the first time. It also includes 40-pages of brand-new, previously unreleased comics taking place in the Liberator world by a murderer's row of incredibly comic creators including Tim Seeley (Hack/Slash, Revival), Matthew Rosenberg (Punisher), Alex de Campi (Grindhouse), Ales Kot (Iron Patriot, Zero), Ed Brisson (Uncanny X-Men), Frank Barbiere (Five Ghosts), Megan Hutchison (Rockstars), Jonathan Brandon Sawyer (Gwar Orgasmageddon), and more. "A really cool, progressive story about young outcast crusaders." -Scott Snyder (writer Batman)

With a basis in environmental history, this groundbreaking study challenges the idea that a meaningful attachment to nature and the outdoors is contrary to the black experience. The discussion shows that contemporary African American culture is usually seen as an urban culture, one that arose out of the Great Migration and has contributed to international trends in fashion, music, and the arts ever since. However, because of this urban focus, many African Americans are not at peace with their rich but tangled agrarian legacy. On one hand, the book shows, nature and violence are connected in black memory, especially in disturbing images such as slave ships on the ocean, exhaustion in the fields, dogs in the woods, and dead bodies hanging from trees. In contrast, though, there is also a competing tradition of African American stewardship of the land that should be better known. Emphasizing the tradition of black environmentalism and using storytelling techniques to dramatize the work of black naturalists, this account corrects the record and urges interested urban dwellers to get back to the land.
