MASTERWORKS OF ART NOUVEAU STAINED GLASS
200 full-color stained glass designs. Recommended. By Arnold Lyongrün and M.J. Gradl. Art Nouveau was the dominant art style in both Europe and America at the turn of the 20th century. Its organic, curvilinear designs influenced painting, architecture, and sculpture, but it was in the decorative arts that Art Nouveau made its most lasting impression. One of its most delightful expressions can be seen in the delicately colored stained glass designs of the period, in which muted tones complement flowing representations of birds, animals, geometrics, foliage, and flowers.

ARTS AND CRAFTS TILES Morris to Voysey
Recommended. By Rob Higgins and Will Farmer. Although Arts and Crafts was initially a medieval revival, the movement was always about the artist craftsman and the appropriate use of materials, rather than any single design tradition. The movement was inspired and led by William Morris, whose company, founded in 1861, produced a full range of interior furnishings, including tiles. These were designed by Morris himself, and also by leading artists and architects of the day such as Edward Burne Jones, Walter Crane, C.F.A. Voysey et al. Amberley, 2017...More.

"...visually lush, emotionally rich..." -Kelly Sue DeConnick By Emma Beeby. Art by Ariela Kristantina, Pat Masioni et al. Dancer. Courtesan. Spy. Executed by a French firing squad in 1917.

KINGDOM
Recommended. By Jon McNaught. Kingdom forges a story in the parts of a vacation we like to forget--the arguments, the poor weather, the moments of quiet solitude. This detailed graphic novel follows a British family on their vacation to a small campground, where teenager Andrew explores the dunes in relative solitude, and Suzie navigates childhood in the wake of her older brother. Told in a color-woodblock style, with amazing numbers of often-tiny panels, this is richly illustrated and sparsely worded. It explores the rhythms of nature, the passing of time, and the beauty and boredom of a summer holiday. Odd but interesting!! Nobrow, 2018...More.

THE BRITISH COMIC BOOK INVASION
By Jochen Ecke. As comics readers grew older during the 1970s amd 1980s, they started calling for more sophisticated stories. Writers and artists with distinctive styles were in demand. DC Comics and Marvel went looking for such mavericks and found them in the United Kingdom. Creators like Alan Moore (Watchmen, Saga of the Swamp Thing), Grant Morrison (The Invisibles, Flex Mentallo) and Garth Ennis (Preacher) migrated from the anarchical British comics industry to the U.S. mainstream and shook up the status quo...

THE HORROR COMIC NEVER DIES
By Michael Walton. Horror comics were among the first comic books published—ghastly tales that soon developed an avid young readership, along with a bad reputation.

Yet the genre survived and flourished, from the 1950s to today. This history covers the tribulations endured by horror comics creators and the genre's ultimate success which helped launch the careers of many of the biggest names in comics.

PRE-CODE CLASSICS BAFFLING MYSTERIES Volume 1
Collects #5-9,1951-52 (this began with #5). Recommended. By Mike Sekowsky, Lou Cameron, Gene Colan, Maurice Gutwirth et al. Mike Sekowsky, Maurice Gutwirth, George Appel, Gene Colan, Jim McLaughlin, Ace Baker, Lou Cameron (Wood-ish art), Bill Molno, and Chic Stone all contribute stories to this collection from small but excellent publisher Ace. Like sister title The Beyond, this is another offbeat Ace Publications title that offered reasonably written stories without going over the top like other comics of the era, and yet keeping a good overall quality of story. Not unlike what Richard Hughes was doing over at ACG, but Ace had generally better artists! PS Artbooks, 2018...More.

SILVER AGE CLASSICS OUT OF THIS WORLD Volume 1
Collects #1-6, 1956-57. Highly Recommended. By Steve Ditko, Vince Alascia et al. Back in the post-EC days of the mid-to-late 1950's and early '60's, Charlton was doing some darned good comics, thanks to ex-EC artists but most especially to Steve Ditko, before he made the move to Marvel. Beginning with issue #3, this was all Steve Ditko, cover to cover, through #6. In the first two issues things were more pure sci-fi, with artwork by Mastroserio, Dick Giordano (who of course moved to DC and eventually became editor-in-chief there), Bill Molno and Charles Nicolas, who was the creator back in the early 1940s of The Blue Beetle.

Numbered from 1000. Polystone. Recommended. Icon Heroes presents the Shazam statue! Of course, we still know him as Captain Marvel, Billy Batson turned hero! Each statue is hand painted, individually numbered, and includes a numbered Certificate of Authenticity. We don't have any artist credit, but it seems to to be at least done in the style of Alex Ross, which makes it pretty cool. I like it. Looks like the classic Captain Marvel but still in a modern way.
