Seiichi Hayashi was a leading figure in the hotbed of avant-garde artistic production of 1960s and early 70s Tokyo. He is best known for his lyrical and experimental manga for Garo, the famous alternative comics magazine. This volume collects a selection of Hayashi's most important manga from this period, including Red Dragonfly (1968), Yamauba's Lullaby (1968), and Gold Pollen (1971). Published here in their original full color, these stories mix traditional Japanese aesthetics with Pop art sensibilities, and range in topic from the legacies of Japanese rightwing nationalism and World War II, to the pervasive influence of America over 1960s Japanese youth culture.

(W/A) Renee French In H Day, Renee French explores, through metaphor and in pictures, her struggles with migraine headaches, marshaling troops of insects, beasts and humanoids to envision the processes that result in such hideous sensations. A sweeping, often tense narrative of invasion, repulsion and liberation, H Day can be read both as an oblique autobiography and as a suspenseful fantasy story.

by Norman Hathaway Overspray is the comprehensive account of an exuberant form of art in the 1970s and the culture that made it famous - airbrushing. Inspired equally by surf graphics and psychedelia, a generation of young artists embraced the optimism of the Los Angeles art scene and combined it with the slick, manicured surfaces of Hollywood. Suddenly, every record cover looked shiny, every pair of lips was high gloss, every palm tree glistened, and clothes were as loud as the sun. The word was awash in perfectly smooth, vibrantly colored forms. Overspray tells these artists' stories for the first time, reproducing hundreds of images of the best airbrushed work, unseen production art, and ephemera. Overspray will bring that era to vivid, glossy life. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

(W/A) Matthew Thurber 1-800 MICE is an anthropological study of the imaginary city of Volcano Park (where flying mouse couriers have replaced Federal Express), with a soap-opera-styled fractured narrative and a cast of thousands. The story is a cross between Thomas Pynchon, Robert Altman, and J.R.R. Tolkien, and has earned Thurber raves from The Comics Journal, Vice, and The Fader. Thurber's work is sure to delight fans of ambitious comic book narratives, as well as those of screwball comedy and Oz-style fantasy. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Kramers Ergot is the premier comics anthology of the 21st century. It has always been a reflection of editor Sammy Harkham's current interests in comics past and future. In that spirit, with this new volume, the he severs Kramers Ergot from many of the formal and stylistic elements with which it made its name. Kramers Ergot 8 is a complete shift both aesthetically and physically. The size of the book is smaller, to encourage a more intimate reading of the material, and the content reflects a focus on substantial works from a small group of no more than a dozen artists.

by Yuichi Yokoyama This book combines two of Yokoyama's central themes - fighting and building. One set of stories, entitled 'Public Works,' details massive structures being erected across a landscape. The other set of stories, 'Combats,' is one sequence after another of elegantly choreographed battles. Yokoyama builds things up and tears them down. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Infomaniacs is a graphic novel printed on paper all about the Internet by the author of 1-800-MICE. A hilarious detective story that manages to critique and explore digital culture, Infomaniacs is marked by the author's restless questioning and heightened sense of the absurd. Thurber looks in on 'The Scriveners of Tweet Street,' Albert Radar, a Joseph Beuys-lookalike psychiatrist, a perfectly preserved brain that has never seen the internet, an organic server farm, the Anthropamorphic Task Force, and so much more. Think of it as The Long Goodbye for the Tumblr generation. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Frank Santoro's graphic novel takes place just before the eruption of Pompeii in the year 79 CE. Marcus, a young expat artist from Paestum, works as an assistant in Pompeii to Flavius, a seemingly well-regarded painter. Aside from mixing paint, Marcus is entangled in the older artist's romantic deceptions, while stuck figuring out his own. Santoro has constructed a historical fiction that is rooted in emotional truths and structured around classical principles of composition. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Gary Panter Legendary underground cartoonist Gary Panter's comics are typically anarchic and fun, but they also delve deeper. Jimbo, Panter's enduring punk everyman, shares billing with a cast of idiosyncratic characters including Bob War (his calamitous brother), Uncle Garcia (a smart-talking dinosaur and beleaguered guardian in a bathrobe), and Kokomo, a native in an unspecified tropical land colonized by oil companies. Panter's farce follows Jimbo's misadventures as he tries to get a Moka Cola at the local Jack-in-the-McTacos. The whole zany affair culminates in an absurd, scatological climax at an automated fast food restaurant. This delightfully inane story offers a selection of Panter's themes: humanity's troubled relationship with nature and technology; the tension between restraint and the uncontrollable urge; family relationships; and Jimbo's endearing, comical self-doubt.
