FANTAGRAPHICS BOOKS

The biggest, richest and most delightful collection of Tyler's work to date. In 'Migrant Mother,' Tyler tells the grueling story of a cross-country trip with the flu and her terrible-twos toddler using her trademark combination of rueful humor and empathy. The full-color 'Just A Bad Seed' is a meditation on a problem child who might not be such a problem after all, while 'The Return of Mrs. Kite' chronicles a family crisis - how her widowed grandmother fell in with a beau of questionable character. 'Gone' (also in full color) is a stirring meditation on all kinds of loss, and 'Why I'm A-gin' Southern Men' is a classic rant that dissects that particular breed of male - or at least a certain subspecies of 'ex'es - with pitiless wit. Other stories include 'Sweet Miss Lee' (a reminiscence of an immigrant roommate and her fate), 'There's Something Wrong with a Perfect Lawn' (a tale of suburban obsessiveness), 'Little Crosshatch Mind' (where artistic impulses come from), and 'Uncovered Property' (discovering the power of sexuality at an early age). Tyler works equally well in delicately crisp black-and-white penstrokes and lushly watercolored paintings (this book features over 30 pages of her stunning full-color work). All told, the three-dozen stories here cement Tyler's reputation as a cartoonist to be reckoned with. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

FANTAGRAPHICS BOOKS

by Mark Newgarden Cartoonist Mark Newgarden debuted in the first issue of RAW magazine in 1980 and his work subsequently found its way into a variety of high and low profile media. He co-created the '80s pop culture fad Garbage Pail Kids, wrote and drew a weekly syndicated humor feature in the '90s, and created a 'Web Premiere Toon' for The Cartoon Network called 'B. Happy.' Newgarden is currently developing an unconventional Christmas special for The Cartoon Network. Newgarden's comics are hilarious, alarming, and masterful uses of the medium, alternating between old-time gags and avant-garde storytelling, often on the same page without missing a comedic beat. Those syndicated comics will make up the bulk of this book, the balance drawing on Newgarden's long form stories from various anthologies, including the much-lauded 'Love's Savage Fury.' This book is a full picture of the artist, his influences, and his many other careers. Newgarden remains a great link to the past while moving ever further into the future. We All Die Alone is an uproariously funny and fascinating book that will appeal to comics readers, pop culture buffs, and any appreciator of the graphic arts.

FANTAGRAPHICS BOOKS

by Igort Close to a century ago, two aspiring cartoonists - Celestine and Pilade - vowed to use this new medium to create amazing works of fantasy and magic, and talk a retired local newspaper publisher into reviving his paper just for them. But just as he sees his big break and gets ready to launch what will eventually become his signature chaacter, 'Morvo', Celestine falls terribly ill, and even his doting sister's help can't get him back on track. Igort's ambitious series traces an alternate history of the very beginnings of the comic strip artform, with subtle nods toward such masters as Winsor McCay and George Herriman.

FANTAGRAPHICS BOOKS

by Jordan Crane An older man sits at his kitchen table, filled with melancholy. Dishes are piled up in the sink, a full pot of coffee burns on the counter; it's a quiet scene of existential despair. The man is a widower, and today is the day to visit his departed wife's gravesite. Little does he know that what the day holds for him will result in this being his last lonely Saturday. Both sweet and bitter, realistic and fantastic, The Last Lonely Saturday is an evocative, romantic novella told in a beautiful two-color, red and yellow palette. His economical images waste not a line, and his narrative flows effortlessly from panel to panel in this heartwarming story of love and love lost. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Leila Marzocchi A fascinating ecological fable done in woodcuts, Niger follows the life of a strange new being named 'Pupa' born in the depth of a lake. Wandering about the surface among other creatures, she takes refuge in a glass and falls asleep. Some birds, curious for the event, organize themselves to protect this small, weak, creature to allow her to grow up. They call the 'Fatmah hand' to ask her to pronounce a Fatwa, intended to discourage the other animals in the wood from threatening the small creature. A superb and thoughtful addition to the Ignatz series. (immagine) Categoria: Comics

FANTAGRAPHICS BOOKS

by Kim, Seth & Simon Deitch Kim Deitch, creator of the acclaimed Fantagraphics collection Shadowland and the cover feature interview in this month's The Comics Journal #292, has recruited his siblings to produce a unique, all-new 'picto-fiction' pocket book. Alternating between heavily illustrated near-comics stories and outright prose pieces, Deitch's Pictorama is a testament to the Deitch family's amazing yarn-spinning abilities! Kim's lengthy picto-story 'The Sunshine Girl' leads off - a typically Deitchean tall tale involving bottle cap collectors, drug dealers, family secrets, and the innocents who wind up in the middle of the hullaballoo. Seth's prose short story, 'Children of Aruf,' features a man and his very unusual dog; 'Unlikely Hours,' a paranoid picto-story about a conspiracy of sentient rats written by Seth and illustrated by Kim; the prose novella 'The Golem,' once again written by Seth and decorated with a series of superb pencil illustrations by Simon; and finally Kim's autobiographical 'The Cop on the Beat, the Man in the Moon and Me.' This entire 'Deitch treat' is wrapped up with an introduction by legendary Academy Award-winning animator, cartoonist and illustrator and proud papa Gene Deitch.
