		<description><![CDATA[Perhaps one of the most notoriously violent rulers of human history, Vlad Dracula of Wallachia went on to inspire Bram Stoker to create his infamous vampire. The real Vlad, however, seems even more horrific than Stoker&#8217;s undead blood-sucker. Vlad justly earned his impaler reputation, skewering thousands of his enemies and subjects on long sharp poles, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jason Lutes’ Berlin: City of Stones is a timely read in light of our troubled global economy. The graphic novel imagines Germany between the world wars, before Adolf Hitler stormed to power. Germany had lost World War I just a decade before and the severe economic sanctions imposed by the victors had crippled the country. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Set during the Renaissance, The Scorpion is a classic tale of swashbuckling action. Given that it&#8217;s a French bande dessinée comic translated into English, you might assume that it revolves around Musketeers. In fact, the action takes place in Rome. Since the fall of the Roman Empire, the Catholic church has ruled Europe with its [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Global opinion towards Israel reached its nadir in 1982, when the country invaded Lebanon and stormed through Beirut on a questionable pretext. Hundreds of Israeli soldiers were killed along with thousands of Lebanese and Palestinians, mainly civilians. Israel&#8217;s ostensible aim was to purge the region of an increasingly belligerent Palestinian Liberation Organization. But it soon emerged that several [...]]]></description>

It’s apolitical in its stance, in that both Republicans and Democrats are taken to task for their actions and [...]]]></description>

But for Alan Cope, an American G.I. stationed in Europe, the war became a fundamental part of his life&#8217;s experiences &#8211; shaping him, moulding him, and supplying him with friendships that would last the rest [...]]]></description>
