DNA Failure is a unique experiment in comics - three different artists explore a single city and a few characters, providing a panoramic creative view of a made-up village somewhere between Tolkien and The Sims. This has echoes of classic roll playing games and the scrappy nature of zine-based comics. Go to the marketplace, throw knives, dig a tunnel, jump fences and take a journey with Famicon.

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.

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

(W/A) James Jarvis The acclaimed British illustrator James Jarvis unveils his first new narrative in five years. This highly anticipated graphic novel follows a beaked artist who travels through a wilderness to arrive at an abandoned city. Wandering the empty streets there, he encounters a mysterious, priestly being who commissions him to decorate a temple to nameless gods. De Profundis might be considered a departure from Jarvis' previous projects; in this book, he has constructed a purely personal narrative with artwork that combines his interest in medieval woodcuts and Dutch De Stjil.

Originally published in 1948, The Mysterious Underground Men tells the story of Mimio the talking rabbit as he struggles to prove his humanity while helping his friends save earth from an invasion of angry humanoid termites. Inspired by Bernhard Kellermann's Der Tunnel (1913), Buster Crabbe's Flash Gordon, and various American comics including Milt Gross' He Done Her Wrong (1930), The Mysterious Underground Men also provides a rare glimpse into the diverse Western sources of young Tezuka's imagination. Printed in the manga's original color and size, this is the first English translation of the book. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

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

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

by Yuichi Yokoyama In two-time Eisner Award nominee Yuichi Yokoyama's Travel, the storyline is as linear as it is sharp; it is the long, silent and crystalline description of a train ride undertaken by three men. The subject Yokoyama depicts here is less the landscape around the train (the distances covered, the regions traveled through) than the actions within the train itself. As the train moves, the three men walk through the string of cars and are confronted with the vehicle's architecture... its machine-like environment. But above all, they are confronted with the stares and the physical presence of other passengers. Travel is a journey into the contemporary Japanese psyche - a brilliant, wordless graphic novel.

From Eisner Award and L.A. Times Book Prize nominated author Yuichi Yokoyama comes a new graphic novel. Guys visit a city. They watch airplanes departing and arriving at an airport. They go on board a ship and across a river. Finally they arrive at a building as their destination. A man guides them to the'world map room.' It seems they have an appointment there, although there is no description about the appointment. They see books on the shelves and have some desultory conversation. Then they go to the courtyard and carry on the conversation. They reach a pond with a sunken ship. The guide starts to explain the ship's history. The book ends.

School Spirits is Anya Davidson's debut book and could be described as like Beavis and Butthead meets James Joyce's Ulysses. It is the story of Oola, a high school student with an unusual connection to the supernatural. Comprised of four chapters, each deploying a different narrative technique, School Spirits is at once funny, sexy, mystical and, above all, utterly clear. Davidson's crisp cartooning style makes even the strangest occurrences seem utterly plausible. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Sammy Harkham is regarded as one of the most influential cartoonist/editor of his generation. After a decade of work and groundbreaking anthologies, Everything Together collects his short stories. These comics condense vast amounts of emotion and information into nuanced cartoon narratives. At the center of the book are two vastly different tales: 'Poor Sailor', a sea-faring myth of a man gone to find wealth for his love; and 'Somersaulting', a fever dream of teenagers in love, wiling away the summer. Through all these works, Harkham maintains a light touch and emotive wit. The works in this book confirm his place among the best storytellers of his generation.
