ALSO AVAILABLE PRINCE VALIANT 1-3 Slipcase Set 1937-42. Our Highest Recommendation. By Hal Foster. Hal Foster's Prince Valiant is one of the most magnificent adventure comics ever and Fantagraphics' reprinting, from rare original syndicate proofs, is today the finest treatment of the strip in the history of publishing. Despite being one of their most popular series, they never produced a holiday gift box set--until now. This deluxe package includes the first three volumes of the series, collecting the first six years of Foster's run, from 1937 through 1942, enclosed in a stunningly illustrated slipcase with different illustrations front and back.

R. CRUMB'S DREAM DIARY Highly Recommended. Edited by Ronald Bronstein and Sammy Harkham. For more than 40 years, R. Crumb has documented his nightly dreams in a meticulously kept, written journal. This stood as a guarded secret, strangely enough, while Crumb has never lacked a compulsion to write about the rest of his life...in his comics. All of his well-documented preoccupations are present—rampant egomania, insatiable lust, profound self-disgust, the sad beauty of old America, the moral bankruptcy of new America and the fool's errand quest for spiritual enlightenment. Here they are, entirely untamed, springing forth from forces beyond even his control--his own sub-conscious. All published for the first time. Lightly illustrated. Elara Press, 2018...More. Item Code: RCDREH Hard Cover - No Dustjacket, 5x8, 466pg, Text/b&w $25.00 |

EMMA G. WILDFORD Newly translated from the French album. Highly Recommended. A delightful period piece about a feisty young poetess whose fiancé has disappeared on an expedition to the Arctic. She's lovely, etheral, independent, confident and naive. It's been fourteen months and now Emma Wildford is going to track him down herself, with the aid of a single Lapland guide--a Cambridge-educated Englishman who loves the land and is as philisophical as Emma is. I really enjoyed this, it has surprising twists and turns--including a mythological "bringer of fire" on a lost island. Minor nudity. Brilliant art and story. Titan, 2017...More. Item Code: EMMAH Hard Cover - No Dustjacket, 8x11, 104pg, Full Color |
I really enjoyed this. If you have been checking out the recent French albums like this and enjoying any of them as much as I am, don't miss The Reprieve, Flight of the Raven, Luisa Now and Then, Carthago, Downward to the Earth and just out, the adult Djinn, which I gave my highest recommendation. |

With Sherlock and Mycroft off in London, their younger sister Enola has been raised by her mother on the family's country manor. But Enola wakes on her 14th birthday to discover that her mother has disappeared, leaving only a collection of flowers and a coded message book. With Sherlock and Mycroft determined to ship her off to a boarding school, Enola escapes, displaying a cleverness that even impresses the elder Holmes. But nothing prepares her for what lies ahead. An all-ages tale that's light and fun, I enjoyed it and look forward to the next installment. IDW, 2018...More. Item Code: ENOLH Hard Cover - No Dustjacket, 9x11, 64pg, Full Color $14.99 |

FUNNY GIRLS Guffaws, Guts, and Gender in Classic American Comics Recommended. By Michelle Ann Abate. Throughout the first half of the twentieth century, comics were enjoyed equally by both sexes, and girls were the protagonists of some of the earliest, most successful, and most influential comics. Abate, an associate professor of literature, examines the important but long-overlooked cadre of young female protagonists, from Little Orphan Annie and Nancy to Little Lulu, Little Audrey of the Harvey Girls, and Li'l Tomboy--a group that collectively forms a tradition of funny girls in American comics. Abate demonstrates the massive popularity these offbeat titles enjoyed, revealing their unexplored narrative richness, aesthetic complexity, and critical possibility.

TURNER'S SKETCHBOOKS By Ian Warrell. One of the most popular painters of all time, J. M. W. Turner (1775–1851) created a remarkable collection of sketchbooks over the course of his career.

Now in paperback, this first full survey of the artist's sketchbooks invites readers to take a privileged look over Turner's shoulder, witnessing the creation and development of ideas that can be traced through to his major paintings, from pencil sketches to water color roughs to more detailed preliminary renderings of landscapes, ships, harbors, and mountains.

An exhibit catalog that accompanied American Fashion Art, 1945-1965 in Massachusetts. "This looks back from the youthful, casual styles created in what we call the "Sizzling Sixties"--to the new look created by Christian Dior in what we call the "Feminine Fifties"--and ultimately back to the austerity of the war years, marked by a determination to keep fashion alive in spite of wartime restrictions. Falk's art captures the spirit of Southern California in the first few years of the 1960s." Newburyport Press, 2007. Out of Print....More. Item Code: LARSA Soft Cover, 8x11, 62pg, Full Color $10.00 |
