In addition, Timm has created new material especially for this collection and delved into his personal archives to share pieces not shown before, culminating in more than 75 additional pages of material.

ILLUSTRATION MAGAZINE #68
Our Highest Recommendation. Special Austin Briggs issue. This issue is entirely devoted to the work of Austin Briggs. Briggs began his career providing illustrations for the pulp magazine Blue Book. In 1935 he began assisting Alex Raymond on Flash Gordon (several originals are here) and took over the dailies, and later the Sunday page. He also succeeded Raymond on Secret Agent Corrigan, even while he was doing magazine illustration beginning in 1941. He later moved on to creating illustrations for books and top-tier magazines such as The Saturday Evening Post. He was one of the founding faculty for the Famous Artists School. In 1969 he was elected to the Society of Illustrators' Hall of Fame. Illustrated Press, 2020...More.

AMAZING FANTASY OMNIBUS
Collects Amazing Adventures #1-6; Amazing Adult Fantasy #7-14; Amazing Fantasy #15, 1961-62. Highly Recommended. By Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, Jack Kirby et al. At the dawn of the Silver Age, Stan and the gang were offering readers a cadre of ten-ton terrors, from Torr to Manoo to Monsteroso -- along with weird tales of witchcraft, Martians and Dr. Druid. And Lee and Ditko started their all-new more mature storytelling, featuring aliens, time travel, ghosts and atomic nightmares! Ditko's lushly illustrated stories set a new standard for comic art, and Lee raised the bar with his powerful, thoughtful scripts. And, oh, in the last issue of AF they created Spider-Man.

MORBIUS THE LIVING VAMPIRE Omnibus
Every Morbius appearance, from the 1st, for ten years, 1970-80. By Steve Gerber, Don McGregor et al. Soon to come to the big screen. Cursed by an experiment gone wrong, Dr. Michael Morbius has an unquenchable thirst for blood -- yet his heart beats like any other man. He is a living vampire, not one of the undead! In this amazing Omnibus is the complete original Morbius saga, from his first appearance through both his first color comic and black-and-white series, and into the rare stories that concluded his tragic tale. The sometimes mad, sometimes misunderstood Morbius contends not just with Marvel's heroes but with bizarre cultists and satanic demons! Marvel, 2020...More.

VIENNA 1900 WIEN
Recommended. By Janina Nentwig. Vienna 1900—a fascinating period in which the metropolis on the Danube became an important center of art nouveau and arts and crafts style. Artists such as Gustav Klimt, Koloman Moser, Olbrich, Loeffler, Max Klinger and Josef Hoffmann were united in their dream of creating beauty in all forms: painting, book design, buildings, furniture, jewelry, lamps--even common household objects became works of art when these creators went to work.

MELVILE A Graphic Novel
A multiple-award winning graphic novel from Belgium. Highly Recommended. By Romain Renard. A beautifully painted, ethereal story with a head-spinning twist. Samuel Beauclair's life has hit the skids.

Sam takes his wife and flees to Melvile, an idyllic small town in the middle of nowhere where he once spent family vacations.

THE GREAT GATSBY
Recommended. By F. Scott Fitzgerald. Art by Aya Morton. Introduction by Blake Hazard. First published in 1925, The Great Gatsby has been acclaimed by generations of readers and is now reimagined as a unique graphic novel. Jay Gatsby, Nick Carraway, Daisy Buchanan, and the rest of the cast are captured in vivid and evocative illustrations by artist Aya Morton, who works in soft pastels and water-color. The story of the mysteriously wealthy Gatsby and his tragic love for the beautiful Daisy is exquisitely captured--the iconic text has been artfully distilled by Fred Fordham, who keeps much of the original dialogue--so much, it took me three sittings to read this. It's dense! Scribner, 2020...More.

Download Catalog
Reserve your copy now—as I announced last week, our software change-over on July 27 means orders for coming items will need to be paid for at the time of order...but until then, our old system works, you'll be charged only when the book ships. After July 27 we can put you on a waiting list...we hope, but we can't just ship and bill for coming or out of stock items until we can modify our new software.

Summer 2020 Catalog

Our new catalog mails today, July 8, so you'll see it in 7-14 days. The mail and UPS systems are very slow right now, so allow extra time for all deliveries, and for your mail getting to us too.
