Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 111
Book Description
Herb Baumeister seemed to have the perfect life; a loving wife, two beautiful children, a summer home getaway, and his own chain of thrift stores. But hidden behind his clever disguise of normalcy was a totally unbalanced, schizophrenic mind filled with violent sexual fantasies that could only be fulfilled by carrying out his fantasies through the act of autoerotic asphyxiation, torture, and murder. In the book THE THRILL KILLER OF INDY, author Brian Lee Tucker looks inside the mind of a killer, bypassing the headlines, rumors, and conjecture, and instead focuses on the INNER WORKINGS of a sick mind, taking us on a journey into a dark abyss that most of us have never seen - and most people wouldn't want to.

Elseworlds: Batman Vol. 2
Author: Mike W. Barr
Publisher: DC Comics
ISBN: 140127269X
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
In Elseworlds, heroes are taken from their usual settings and put into strange times and places—some that have existed, or might have existed, and others that can’t, couldn’t or shouldn’t exist. The result: stories that make characters who are as familiar as yesterday seem as fresh as tomorrow. Gotham City is caught in a vortex of corruption and decay, and those who feed on blood and despair are about to suck any remaining life from her dying veins. All that stands against them is the Batman, their legendary companion in the darkness, the last line of defense between the innocent and the screaming chaos of mindless appetite. To combat this primeval threat, however, the Dark Knight must give up everything he holds dear, including life itself—for death is only the first step toward the final reckoning between good and evil. Written by Doug Moench and illustrated in full gothic glory by Kelley Jones, John Beatty and Malcolm Jones III, ELSEWORLDS: BATMAN VOL. 2 gives free rein to the darker side of the World’s Greatest Detective, collecting BATMAN & DRACULA: RED RAIN, BATMAN: BLOODSTORM and BATMAN: CRIMSON MIST.
