The Book of Weirdo is the definitive and hugely entertaining examination of WEIRDO magazine, renowned underground comix cartoonist Robert Crumb's legendary humor comics anthology, which was originally published throughout the 1980s. A 'low-brow' counterpoint to Art Spiegelman and Francoise Mouley's rather high-faluttin' RAW comix publication, WEIRDO influenced an entire generation of alternative and neo-underground artists. This hardcover anthology features the complete story of the well-recalled comics magazine, along with testimonials from over 130 of the publication's contributors and interviews with WEIRDO's three editors: R. 'Keep On Truckin'' Crumb, Peter 'Hate' Bagge, and Aline 'The Bunch' Kominsky-Crumb. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Cartoonist Keiji Nakazawa was seven years old and living in Hiroshima in the early days of August 1945 when the city was destroyed by an atomic bomb dropped by the U.S.A. Starting a few months before that event, the ten-volume saga shows life in Japan after years of war and privations, as seen through the eyes of seven-year-old Gen Nakaoka. As Volume Ten begins, the year is 1953. Now an apprentice sign painter, Gen has become a skilled artist, while his friends run a thriving dressmaking business. Gen falls in love for the first time, but fails to notice that a good friend has been caught in the clutches of drug addiction. Heartbreak and loss await Gen as the atomic bomb continues to wreak havoc on the lives people in Hiroshima years after the fact. Yet these tragedies also inspire Gen to make the big move to Tokyo to pursue his career as an artist. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

(W) Steve Wright (A) Banksy The witty and subversive style of graffiti artist Banksy appeals equally to street art fans and the rich and famous. Banksy's Bristol reveals Banksy's formative years and contains more than one hundred images of his art, as well as pictures of Banksy at work, many of which have never been published before. This book places Banksy in the context of the artists and musicians who were instrumental in linking Bristol to the original New York hip hop scene. Steve Wright traces Banksy's roots back to the rave culture of the Nineties and draws a rounded picture of an artist who is most famous for being anonymous.
