We were excited enough by this book's publicationthat we ordered it – from France – in it's originalFrench language release (resulting in us charging more than twice as much as we are for this North American release!). While, of course, there have been comics about jazz in the past – some of the best of which, intriguingly, have also originated in Europe– in Total Jazz, Blutch, comics master that he is, has done more than most to bring the spirit of jazz to itsrepresentation in comics form;working towardstranslating the jazzethos of improvisation within formal compositions into the language of comics. While many of the short pieces...

Here it is: the final (>sob!<) Peanuts strips by Charles M. Schulz, the last of which, the final Sunday page, originally appeared on the same day as Schulz's obituary, as he passed on from this world (and doubtless onto the Sphere of True Comics) the day before its publication. The editors cleverly filled out what would have otherwise been a slim volume by bookending the conclusion of Peanuts with the complete collection of Schulz's precursor strip to Peanuts, L'il Folks. And, to top it all off, this volume is introduced by none other than the President of the United States of America, Barack Obama! A fitting finale.

While he does, of course, have a number of major book projects under his belt, going all the way back to the immensely influential late-1990s work, Skibber Bee Bye, along with numerous contributions to a wide range of anthologies, for thirty years and counting Ron Regé, Jr. has been preaching the gospel of hand-made, self-published comics, and the personal salvation to be found in the practice. In the process, he has emerged as one of the truest disciples of William Blake, carrying forth the Blakean spirit into the comics realm. Since 2016 this practice has been flowing through his most sustained self-publishing project yet, The Shell of...

The most formally ambitious issue yet in theRetrofit Comicsseries published by Box Brown, Andrew White'sWe Will Remaincontains five shorts works which together serve to showcase White's native abilities as well as demonstrating that he has absorbed some of the key lessons ofFrank Santoro's comics correspondence course. Recommended for those who appreciate the work of David Mazzucchelli and Dash Shaw, as well as Santoro,We WIll Remainstarts off with a dramatic shift from the micro to the macro as the small scale personal work "The Deep End" gives way to the cosmic conundrum of "Travel" before heading into a trio of formal experiments, "As...

Move over, Dennis the Menace – Akissi is back! Here, in the frantic, fun-filled, full color pages of More Tales of Mischief, Akissi romps through 20 all-new tales, all created on a standard template of splash page followed by five pages each laid out using a six panel grid – except for two Double-Size Specials that run for twelve pages total. Here we have vital tales of growing up in Côte d'Ivoire (that's the Ivory Coast, located in west Africa, for all you Anglophones out there) – that are more or less based on the childhood experiences of Marguerite Abouet – that really capture the zaniness of a kids perspective on the world that – as...

Hold onto your hats - the complete collection of The Panic Fables by Alejandro Jodorowsky has arrived. All 284 strips, originally created in 1967-1973, written AND drawn by Jodorowsky, all translated into English for the first time. This is it!

It's time for comics connoisseurs to crank up their cogitation once again, as a new issue of Ganges is in stock and on sale here at The Copacetic Comics Company. And the verdict? Kevin Huizenga once again delivers the goods! This time around we have the inner workings of an agitated mind – that of Glenn Ganges, to answer your question – at the edge of sleep, visually embodied as its own cartoon being, distinct and separate from – if in many respects identical to – the body housing this mind. All readers who have ever had a rough time falling asleep and have had their mind wander to and fro seemingly of its "own" accord will have plenty to...

The Ganzfeld is a true one-of-a-kind publication and #3 is by far the best issue yet. It shouldn't really be under the comics listing, but as it is truly uncategorizable, this is as good a spot as any. The editors once again bring together a unique group of designers, illustrators, cartoonists, and artists in a coherent, strongly designed format. It features a unique collaboration between Rick Moody and Fred Tomaselli; a new picture story by designer Geoff McFetridge, and even an illustrated essay by Alfred Hitchcock. Lengthy comics and picture stories are contributed by an international group, Renée French, Ron Rege, Jr., Blexbolex, Brian...
