bibliotek", Kaltenborn og Kristoffer Kjølbergs aparte
"Dongery Quiz", pluss mye mer. Forord av Knut Nærum.
Kaltenborn er en av Dongery-tegnerne, og i 2006 fikk
han Sproingprisen for Seks sultne menn som var hans

"Fletcher Hanks was the first great comic book auteur. That is,
he wrote, penciled, inked, and lettered all of his own stories. He
completed an astonishing 48 stories in three years from 1939-1941. As a
one-man-cartooning-band, his work packs the wallop of a unique and unified
artistic vision. He was a true comics visionary. In the earliest days of
the comic book, before censorship, it was “anything goes!”
— and in the tales of Fletcher Hanks, anything went!
Although the early comic books were meant for the kiddies,
today’s mature readers are stunned by their pop surrealism and
outright violent mayhem. The first volume of Fletcher Hanks stories, I
Shall Destroy All Civilized Planets! (in multiple printings) was an
Eisner Award-winning smash hit and a staple on Best of the
Year lists." -Fantagraphics

"Before the Amazing Spider-Man, before the mysterious
Dr. Strange, before the black-and-white world of the Ayn
Rand-inspired Mr. A, the legendary comic book artist Steve Ditko
was conjuring all manners of horrors at his drawing table. In his first two
years in the industry (1953 and 1954), Ditko drew tales of macabre suspense
that were not yet hobbled by the imminent Comics Code Authority
(adopted in Oct. 1954). These stories featured graphic bloodshed,
dismemberment and blood-curdling acid baths as the ugly end to the lives of
the dark and twisted inhabitants of Steve Ditko’s imagination."

"Äntligen kommer uppföljaren till Henrik Langes stora succé 80
romaner för dig som har bråttom från 2007. Han fortsätter att
sammanfatta världshistoriens största litterära verk (och även några
andra verk) och komprimera dem på ett lika effektivt som utsökt sätt:
på en sida som består av fyra rutor. Henrik Lange lyckas inte bara
förklara vad romanen handlar om på denna minimala yta, utan ger också
begreppet "Less is more" en verklig innebörd." -fra omslaget

"What impact did World War II and the dropping of the atomic bomb have
on the common people of Japan? Through the eyes of an average woman living
in 1955, Japanese artist Fumiyo Kouno answers these questions. This
award-winning manga appears in an English translation for the first time.
Fumiyo Kouno's light free style of drawing evokes a tender reflection of
this difficult period in Hiroshima's postwar past. As the characters
continue with everyday life, the shadow of the war and the atomic bombing
linger ghostlike in the background." -fra omslaget

"Collecting over thirty short stories by London-based
writer/artist Carol Swain, Crossing the Empty Quarter and Other
Stories is Swain's first career-spanning retrospective! The
"graphic lit" love children of Gabriel García
Márquez and Raymond Carver, Swain's comics first appeared in the
late 1980s, and she has since contributed to over twenty anthologies across
the globe. Her introspective, boldly executed, and visually unique works
are peppered with magical realism, autobiography, and tenacious punk
attitudes. While Swain's tales cover a wide range of emotions, politics,
and societal ills, they are all tied together with an art style that is
universally appealing and undeniably unique. Two brand-new color stories,
created for this hardcover volume, are featured in a special color
section." -Dark Horse
