ART YOUNG'S INFERNO Original Art Edition Recommended. Introduction by Steven Heller. Foreword by Glenn Bray. The preeminent American political cartoonist's classic reinterpretation of Dante's Inferno as a satirical indictment of capitalism -- as it has never been seen before. Capitalist oligarchs and their minions have been condemned to Hell, but they lead a hostile takeover, throw out Satan, and privatize the Inferno. Operated by a corporate monopoly who maximizes profits and misery, Hell has become the perfect capitalist paradise. This edition also includes the original 1934 essays by Young, a foreword by acclaimed graphic designer Steven Heller, and an introduction by art collector and documentarian Glenn Bray.

Harrison Cady (1877–1970) was one of the definitive magazine illustrators and cartoon artists of the first half of the 20th century.

AUTUMN'S COME UNDONE
Closeout Price! By Shag. Something's come undone. The intimate moments that have made Shag famous have been replaced by epic tableaus. Richly hued designer environments have given way to subtly de-saturated expanses. Characters who were once grounded in mid-century formality are teetering on the brink of chaos. This collection of new work showcases the largest, darkest and most thought provoking images Shag has ever created. The art is distinctly Shag, but it's painted in shades of black humor, reminding us of demented Disneyland rides, with cavorting nude ladies, unearthly creatures. Baby Tattoo, 2009...More.

This beautiful hard cover edition of Milne's work features stunning images of her most recent paintings and also includes a foreword by fellow artist Camille Rose Garcia. Handsome die-cut binding with embossed designs and lettering. Baby Tattoo, 2013...More. Item Code: FROHH Hard Cover, 9x9, 152pg, Full Color $40.00 $29.95 |

Collects Savage Sword of Conan #13-28 & Marvel Comics Super Special #2, 1976-80 Highly Recommended. By Roy Thomas. Art by Dick Giordano, John Buscema et al. Savage Sword, the cornerstone of Marvel's black-and-white magazine line, offered up stories of fiction's most famous barbarian unencumbered by the Comics Code. With the rules of civilized publishing cast off, Savage Sword presented ferocious, untamed tales. Artistic greats, including Neal Adams, took full advantage, and the results were a sensation. Multipart sagas like "The People of the Black Circle" luxuriate in an extended telling, while John Buscema on "The Tower of the Elephant" explores the nuance of an all-time Robert E. Howard classic.
