(W/A) Imiri Sakabashira Enter the strange world of Imiri Sakabashira. The Box Man follows its zoomorphic protagonists along a scooter trip through a landscape that oscillates between a dense city, a countryside simplified to near abstraction, and hybrids of the two. Sakabashira weaves this absurdist tale in a seamless tapestry constructed of elements as seemingly disparate as Japanese folklore, pop culture, and surrealism.

Tove Jansson's Moomin stories made her one of the most beloved Scandinavian authors of the 20th-century.

by Rutu Modan Jamilti and Other Stories is the eagerly-anticipated follow-up to Exit Wounds, and it collects Israeli cartoonist Rutu Modan's short works, written and drawn over the past 5 years, that lead the reader through unexpected turns of plot and unusual character portraits. Some are darkly fantastical and unsettling, such as the unraveling of a serial-killer murder mystery, or her accounts of an infatuated plastic surgeon and his sanitarium. Others are more attuned to the surprising discoveries that shape personal identity, as in the story of a tragic past that lies within a family's theme hotel, or that of a struggling musician who hopes an upcoming gig will be his big break. In 'Jamilti,' Modan addresses political violence with a suicide bombing that shakes up a day in the lives of a young couple. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

(W/A) Pablo Holmberg Argentinean cartoonist Pablo Holmberg creates a bucolic, medieval folktale in Eden, a beautifully drawn, whimsical collection of comic strips. Follow a king as he converses with the moon, a star as it is born, and many more in four-panel strips that combine the playfulness of a Sunday comic with the virtuoso simplicity of a haiku. Surreal yet friendly and approachable, each strip celebrates the thrill of being alive and encourages the reader to do the same. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Rutu Modan In modern-day Tel Aviv, a young man, Koby Franco, receives an urgent phone call from a female soldier. Learning that his estranged father may have been a victim of a suicide bombing in Hadera, Koby reluctantly joins the soldier in searching for clues. His father's death would certainly explain the empty apartment and disconnected phone line. As Koby tries to unravel the mystery of his father's death, he finds himself not only piecing together the last few months of his father's life, but his entire identity. With thin, precise lines and luscious watercolors, Modan creates a portrait of modern Israel, a place where sudden death mingles with the slow dissolution of family ties.

Julie Doucet arrived in comics in the 1990s as a fully formed cartoonist. Her comic book series Dirty Plotte was visionary both for the medium and for storytelling. Her stories are candid, funny, and intimate, plumbing the depths of the female psyche while charting the fragility of the men around her. Her artwork is dense and confident, never wavering in the wit and humour of its owner. Doucet was active in comics for 15 years before she moved on to other media. Her influence casts a long shadow over the medium as Dirty Plotte is quite simply one of the most iconic comic book series to have ever been created. Dirty Plotte: The Complete Julie Doucet collects the entire comic book series, including the acclaimed My New York Diary, as well as rare comics and previously unpublished material; a reproduction of the first Dirty Plotte mini comic; essays about her comics legacy and feminist influence by curator Dan Nadel and academic Martine Delvaux respectively; an interview by comics scholar Christian Gasser; and personal anecdotes from Jami Attenberg, Adrian Tomine, and more.

Kitaro Meets Nurarihyon is the second volume in the adventures of Shigeru Mizuki's bizarre yokai boy Kitaro and his gaggle of otherworldly friends. These seven stories date from the golden age of Gegege no Kitaro, when Mizuki had perfected the balance of folklore, comedy, and horror that made Kitaro one of Japan's most beloved characters. In addition to more than 150 pages of Mizuki's all-ages monster fun, Kitaro Meets Nurarihyon includes bonus materials: 'Yokai Files' that introduce Japan's folklore monsters and a 'History of Kitaro' essay by translator Zack Davisson.

A hilarious send-up of the art world’s patriarchy The history of twentieth century art is filled with men, but one key component has always been missing: Which of these men are boneable? And which are not? Jessica Campbell has created the definitive resource on this very important subject in a hilarious rundown of male artist hotness and notness. From its cheeky scratch-off cover and curator’s statement, Jessica Campbell’s Hot Or Not is a delightful, cheeky exclamation of female desire and utter lack thereof.

(W/A) Christian Northeast Succinctly stated and punctuated with a sharp-edged visual style, Prayer Requested presents a narrative of illustrations and collages, each one accompanied by a found or scavenged prayer. The works of Prayer Requested are inspiring, amusing, enlightening, and in some cases entirely peculiar, each marrying heartfelt intent with frank, unflattering interpretation. They represent a creativity and freedom of thought and form, cleverly depicting the intimacy, urgency, and absurdity of these found prayers with a sense of explicit surrealism.

With her startling humor, it's no surprise that Aminder Dhaliwal's web comic Woman World has a devoted audience of over 120,000 readers. When a birth defect wipes out the planet's entire population of men, Woman World rises out of society's ashes. Dhaliwal's infectiously funny instagram comic follows the rebuilding process, tracking a group of women who have rallied together under the flag of 'Beyonce's Thighs.' Only Grandma remembers the distant past, a civilization of segway-riding mall cops, Blockbusters movie rental shops, and 'That's What She Said' jokes. Woman World is an uproarious and insightful graphic novel from a talented and funny new voice. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

While trying to understand his ennui, Seth discovers the life and work of Kalo, a forgotten New Yorker cartoonist from the 1940s. But his obsession blinds him to the needs of his lover and the quiet desperation of his family. Wry self-reflection and moody colors characterize this tale about learning lessons from nostalgia. His playful and sophisticated experiment with memoir provoked a furious debate among cartoon historians and archivists about the existence of Kalo, and prompted a Details feature about Seth's 'hoax.'
