An all new 125-page hardcover graphic novel from the creator of Box Office Poison, at a great price.

From the creator of the highly regarded Box Office Poison (just rereleased in a new matching edition) comes an all new 352 page graphic novel that "follows the lives of six people -- a reclusive rock legend, a heartbroken waitress, a counterfeiter, an obsessive crank, a lost daughter, and a backstabbing lover -- whose lives are unconnected until an act of violence brings them spiraling in on each other."

Collecting the entire 21 issue run of the Antactic Press series that was originally published during the late-1990s, this 608 page compendium reads as much like a graphic novel as it does a collection.  It's tale of post-college life in NYC holds up fairly well and is a worthwhile way to revisit those years.

The artwork shows an unmistakable Dave Sim influence but the story and script, not so much, as the characters that populate these pages are much more drawn from life, and have far healthier sexual habits.

Found in the Archives (so far): ONE slightly dinged copy of the 4th print fro 2006. Photo accompanying listing is of actual item.
