by Grant Morrison, Tom DeHaven & Rian Hughes Rian Hughes, acclaimed as an illustrator and designer, collects some of his groundbreaking comics artwork in this remarkable collection. Writer Grant Morrison reworks of the classic British comics character, Dan Dare, set in a mass unemployment 1980's in which Dare is no longer sure of his place in the England around him. 'Science Service,' co-written with John Freeman, allows Hughes full rein for his retro style. For Raymond Chandler's 'Goldfish', adapted by Tom DeHaven, he captures the noir shadows in a clever use of 2-color artwork. Also in the book are 'Really & Truly,' also by Grant Morrison, from 2000 AD, and a selection of sketchbook pages. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

These are the first beats of the Beatles' career as only legendary rock cartoonist Mauri Kunnas could tell them. The cover depicts John, Paul, George, and Ringo crossing the street Abbey Road style, but the street's in Hamburg's seedy Reeperbahn red-light district, and the flip cover adds lost Beatles Pete Best and Stu Sutcliffe to the mix. Kunnas chronicles the band from Ringo's birth (against a backdrop of the Luftwaffe shelling Liverpool) through the release of their hit, 'Please Please Me'/'Ask Me Why.' Focusing on the band's pre-fame days in a sly and irreverent style (and not shying away from Brian Epstein's fixation upon John), Kunnas makes liberal use of corny in-jokes and hokey wordplay, but it's all done in good fun.

Including Faust, Giordano Bruno, William Blake, WB Yeats, Dr. Dee, Kenneth Anger, Mother Shipton, Madam Blavatsky, Isaac Newton, David Bowie, and, repeatedly, Aleister Crowley.

The story of Max Zillion, the ace saxophonist man-handling his chosen instrument Alto Ego, rising to artistic heights with music and sinking through financial depths thanks to the machinations of Mean McMudda, the eternal agent who takes 100% and then some. Hunt Emerson is the only cartoonist who has had the courage to take jazz as his story, and he improvises on it like Charlie Parker did. Includes a 25 page gallery by such luminaries as Dave McKean, Peter Bagge, Jay Lynch, Gilbert Shelton, Rian Hughes, and many more. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Gilbert Shelton Presenting the definitive collection of the classic underground comic strip that has been published in 15 languages, inspired countless items of merchandise, and racked up worldwide sales of over 40 million copies! The Freak Brothers are timeless clowns, and it's Shelton's mastery of satire and slapstick, silly punchlines, and the traditional simple forms of humor at the heart of these tripped-out cartoons which have kept them fresh and mirthful for 40 years. Soon to be an animated feature film! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Comics pages about Unexplained Phenomena. Hunt Emerson has drawn these pages for Fortean Times magazine since the mid-1980s; they're about the weird things that happen in the world-Vampires, Ghosts, Faeries, UFOs, Werewolves, Folk Beliefs, Miracles, Mystery Smells, Unknown Animals, Megaliths-all put through his comics filter.... well, they make Hunt laugh! Many of the Unexplained Phenomena are based on some sort of documentary evidence. Just as many are invented by Emerson. He loves that marginal world. This book has been a long-term ambition of his: to present a selection of Phenomenomix strips in a luxury comics album. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

(W) Alan Moore, Tim Perkins (A) Eddie Campbell Two of Alan Moore's performance pieces are adapted by comics by his From Hell collaborator Eddie Campbell. The Birth Caul is a shamanism of childhood, a journey from the present to the past, back into the womb and beyond. The magical creation theory story of love, death and resurrection Snakes and Ladders entwines the disinterment of Oliver Cromwell and Elizabeth Siddell, the visionary nature of Arthur Machen's experiences after the death of his wife, and Moore's magical traveler John Constantine.

(W/A) Gilbert Shelton A satire on fundamentalist religion and Western imperialism, starring the world's least successful rock band. It's every band's dream: an international concert tour, a chance to spread Freedom, Democracy, and the American Way of Life among the peoples of the world, through massively amplified Rock 'n' Roll music! You might say it was pure luck for Not Quite Dead, though not necessarily of the good sort. The Secret Spy Service wants to send a cultural delegation to foment disruption in the poorest country in the world to allow the US government to send in the military to restore peace.

London, The mid-sixties. In what appears to have been a murder attempt, Britain's greatest pop sensation Vic Vox has been left a foot tall, the effects of the 'shrink drug' administered by assailants unknown. Detective Chief inspector Ladyshoe and his team at Scotland Yard are out to find who did it, and why, but they are up against the clock. They need to crack the case within the week and return Vox to full-size in time for him to perform as the main act on television's biggest one-off, live pop show: Ready For Pop.

(W/A) Gilbert Shelton Fat Freddy's Cat began life as a footnote strip to the Freak Brothers and later appeared in many comics of his own. The never-ending army of roaches out for world domination drive him to distraction, as does Fat Freddy's failure to feed him or empty his kitty litter box. This cat has traveled to Mexico, saved the world from alien invasion, and worked as a government agent in Washington trying to save the world from the 'hee hee hee' drug. Collected in one massive volume, Fat Freddy's Cat will appeal to the sarcastic cat-lover in all of us. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
