Employing his amazing ability to visually render concepts in ways that illuminate the intellect and point the way towards comprehension and understanding make this another truly educational read that will be sure to provide American readers with fresh perspectives on their own history.

Through a hard won personal process developed over decades of his artistic practice, Mark Doox has merged the respective iconographies of Byzantine Christian art and racist American art, effecting a strange transformation whereby each becomes the other as they become one. A large selection of the mixed-media artworks that have emerged from this practice have been assembled together with artworks created specifically for this volume and then accompanied by a series of self-authored texts, which serve the dual purpose of providing exigetical commentary on the artworks themselves and advancing arguments which the artworks then serve to...

Sky in Stereo started out life in a series of digest-size, pamphlet comic books which were then collected with additional material as Volume One. Now, at last, we have the long awaited conclusion to (Sacha) Mardou's graphic novel of growing up in a nameless British location (that likely bears more than a passing resemblance to the Manchester of Mardou's own youth).

While all children must cross thesea of adolescence to gain the continent of adulthood, eachmakes their own personal and unique crossing, and while some find this crossingrelatively smooth, others may encounter stormy seas. Here in the pages of the second and final volume ofSky...

Back in print at last! in an amazing oversize (9 1/2" x 12 1/2") full color hardcover edition, no less. Madwoman of the Sacred Heart is the other Moebius/Jodorowsky masterpiece (along with, of course, The Incal). This edition, as with the previous, standard size editions, collects all three original albums. Here's our original listing:

Moebius & Jodorowsky's Madwoman is, perhaps, the screwball comedy to end all screwball comedies. Opening on a French college campus, it startsout slow with what seems at first to be the beginnings ofa fairly typical professorial indiscretion with an attractive younger student, but.... Well, we don't want...

The tale Blankets tells is in most respects a classic coming of age story, but the place -- emotional as well as geographical -- that it is coming from may not be familiar territory for many readers: an abnegating Christianity built on self-denial ensconced in the harsh northern environs of Wisconsin and Michigan. Yet there can be no doubt that the core questions and values dealt with in Blankets are certainly universal ones.

The pacing, the placement of blacks,...
