PRINCE VALIANT Volume 19 Sunday Pages, 1973-74. Recommended. By Hal Foster. Art by John Cullen Murphy. Val is sent to defend the borders against invading barbarians, but it is young Arn who takes center stage as he travels to his homeland and loses his heart to Lydia, daughter of Haakon the Sea-Rover. Their romance is battered by battlefield conflicts, court conspiracies, assassination, and suicide. Escaping from a castle beset by siege and plague, Arn encounters Sir Gawain and joins him on the jousting circuit. The two become trapped in a lost, lush land presided over by the mad Duke Cyril and the entombed object of his desire. In Thule, Prince Valiant defends the King of the Inner Lands from a war party led by a giant. Fantagraphics, 2019...More. Item Code: PV19H Hard Cover - No Dustjacket, 10x14, 112pg, Full Color |

ALSO AVAILABLE THE PRINCE VALIANT PAGE Our Highest Recommendation. By Gary Gianni. Foreword by Mike Mignola.

Every aspect of the new era of the strip is covered here, with a particular focus on Gianni's preliminary sketches and production methods. Flesk, 2008...More.

This is a very good read, all about working on Prince Valiant with his father, John Cullen Murphy, and with Hal Foster himself. Cullen wrote PV for many years after Foster turned over the reigns. He also thrived in a hotbed of artists coming and going where they lived. Now on sale. [CARCH. $27.00, $14.99]. This is highly recommended. |

AN EVENING IN THE CLASSROOM Recommended. Foreword by Jeff A. Menges. Illustrator and painter Harvey Dunn was deeply influenced by Howard Pyle. Pyle's Brandywine students became some of the most important and well-regarded artists of the twentieth century, including N.C. Wyeth, Frank Schoonover, Violet Oakley, Jessie Willcox Smith...and Dunn, who went on to influence the next generation of artists. During the course of an evening in 1934, while Dunn was teaching at Grand Central School of the Arts, Miss Taylor recorded his comments and criticisms. These notes later surfaced in a slim, limited-edition volume. Enhanced by Dunn's striking woodcut images, the book provides a flavorful re-creation of the atmosphere in his classroom.

He studied graphic art and painting at the University of Kansas and settled in Spain in 1975. Numerous international exhibitions underline the importance of Parkes' work. What is unusual about him is that in his paintings and lithos, metaphysical and spiritual elements are joined to reality.

LITTLE BIG HORN The master of erotic art takes on a famous historical battle! Recommended. By Paolo Eleuteri Serpieri. Introduction by Roberto Guarino and Matteo Pollone.

From the sexy Druuna to this is a leap, but he has done historical-oriented work at times in Druuna's travels through time. I think this is going to be very good, and probably accurate in its historical detail. Lo Scarabeo, 2019. Due Oct. ...More. Item Code: LITBH Hard Cover, 12x13, 108pg, b&w $45.00 |

Coming from Twomorrows in September. I'm excited about this and orders have already been strong just from our email listing here. I was more than a little worried it might sell out quickly like Twomorrows' previous art book on Reed Crandall. So I have not only ordered a significant number but also have additional copies put aside, reserved for us. This is the first-ever book on this important artist, and he's one of my personal favorites as well as very popular for his wartime comic covers on Captain Marvel Jr. and Master Comics. So we've made this the cover feature for our next catalog, which will be in your hands in August. Here's a sneak peak at the cool issue of the Captain Marvel Jr. comic that we will be adapting to our catalog cover, as well as the cover of the book itself.
