Titles released next month include Naked Vinyl (cover by Christine Taylor and spread pictured), which charts four decades of nude album covers; and Comicbook Action Heroes, which details the origins and development of 500 comicbook heroes and features front cover illustration by John Watson and 130 full-colour illustrations. Both titles are available from 6 December, priced from £8.99.
