THE STAN LEE STORY
Highly Recommended. By Roy Thomas and Stan Lee. First published as a signed Collector's Edition at $1500, this sold out within a week after Stan passed away. It was his final book collection, and what a work. An unparalleled account of the life and times of “the Man”, written and edited with his full cooperation. His tale is told by Roy Thomas, who brings "you are there" insights to Lee's journey alongside never-before-seen photographs, original comic art, and rare comic book facsimiles. "Of all the tributes to the late Marvel legend, The Stan Lee Story is perhaps the largest and most ambitious...for a collector's item, it's hard to beat." - syfy.com Taschen, 2019...More.

HORIZONTAL COLLABORATION
By Navie. Art by Carole Maurel.

In this poignant, female-centered graphic novel created by writer/artist duo Carole Maurel and Mademoiselle Navie, the taboo of "sleeping with the enemy" is explored through the story of a passionate, and forbidden, affair.

Krazy Kat

 
GEORGE HERRIMAN The Complete Krazy Kat in Color 1935-1944
Highly Recommended. By George Herriman. A huge coffee table book, collecting the complete pages of George Herriman's Krazy Kat 1935–44, just a little smaller than the original published Sunday page size. One of the first comics to be considered a work of art, Krazy Kat delights with its detailed characterization and visual-verbal creativity alongside the slapstick shenanigans of Krazy and Ignatz the mouse. This reprint comes with a 100-page illustrated introduction by Alexander Braun in a special carrying-case/box. Taschen, 2019...More.

This isn't just original artwork for Krazy Kat strips. It has page after page of one-of-a-kind, beautifully hand-colored pieces that Herriman did for friends, including birthday cards, framed artworks, and illustrated thank-you's.

KRAZY KAT 1934
Library of American Comics 8. Highly Recommended. By George Herriman. The year includes homages to old jokes and bricks, followed by playful references to sex, drink, and even drugs. The daily Krazy Kat strips are often Herriman's most personal works and standouts from this year include Krazy Kat's attempt to write a memoir and the Kat's quietly waiting for the last leaf of "ottim" to fall (a tender scene that finds echoes in Charles Schulz's drawing of Linus admiring the last autumn leaf's stubborn spirit). It could also be argued that the daily is more accessible to the new reader. IDW, 2016...More.

Featuring photographs from some of the most exciting performances, this is a celebration of flamboyant vintage burlesque. Captions further detail each scene and who's starring. We love the group scenes with two, three and four performers in incredibly ornate and yet still revealing costumes. Feather dances, silhouette gags, playing with light and see-through costumes, teasing poses. This is the world of early pin-up, with class! Flame Tree, 2019...More.

Recommended. Art by Christian Quinot (2), Gwabryel (2), Unholy Vault Desigs, Kari Christiansen, Daemon Barzai, Kastja Schleger, et al. Appearing in several of H.P. Lovecraft's works, the kraken-like monster Cthulhu is an iconic figure that has fed imaginations of fans and inspired new stories of horror by other writers. Its name [pronounced Ku-thu-lu] has come to define the whole mythos built up around Lovecraft's strange worlds and pantheon of monsters. Featuring work by young contemporary artists, this calendar displays a fascinating mix of weird and wonderful depictions of this notorious monster that lurks beneath the deep.

A very large, creepy, magnificent painting of a huge Cthulhu, towering hundreds of feet above a lost sailing ship, sails shredded, about to be crushed and sunk into oblivion. It's a dark, stormy scene in the midst of a swirling, crashing ocean--Lovecraft superbly brought to life for your wall.

MARVEL MASTERS OF SUSPENSE Stan Lee & Steve Ditko Omnibus Volume 1
Highly Recommended.

Highly Recommended. By Trina Robbins. Art by Gladys Parker.

This beautiful book will also provide a rarely seen collection of Mopsy stories and many of Parker's earlier strips. Parker was unique in comics.
