led to his committing an aberrant and abhorrent act, the author
Issa Ibrahim, in reviewing his life attempts to make peace with
himself, offering this memoir and confessional.
Autopsy of the Damned, told in first person, is the story of
a young black artist who wakes up fucked up, emerging from a
suburban dream into an urban nightmare disenchanted, drug
addicted, delusional and damned.
Autopsy of the Damned, written from behind the walls of an
insane asylum, follows the path of marijuana madness,
winding up in the author's Queens, New York home during the

THE COSMIC KNOCKOUT
A Love Story with the Devil
by Izzy Aha
Somewhere over the rainbow...there is hell.
Cosmic Knockout, a Love Story with the Devil, is a descent
into madness where sanity is insane and insanity is the
refuge, a sci-fi take on Greek tragedy and the Second
Coming. Inspired by a true story where a young man, Izzy
Aha finds love and himself in an insane asylum; possessed by
an aberration, misguided by a false prophet within himself, he
becomes his own tour guide through hell.
Cosmic Knockout is an apocalyptic delusion; a multi-layered,
surreal, dream-like odyssey run rampant, where mutants and
superbeings intermingle with the mad and the workingman,
ultimately leading to a showdown with the Devil and Devil
within himself. Can our hero save the world and himself as
it teeters on the brink?
Cosmic Knockout has film/print/music/multi-media potential.
Told with the aid of full-color paintings and a companion CD
containing original songs of horror, madness, forgiveness
and love the Cosmic Knockout will knock you out!
