Lyrisk, sårt og med en dialog som gjør Lundkvist siste mesterverk til
en uovertruffen triumf! Galago forlag sørger i tillegg for
lekkert trykk og fin innpakning, og da er det bare å sørge for å hente
inn denne moderne klassikeren til bokhylla før opplaget er borte.
"Gunnar Lundkvist är existentialisten bland svenska serietecknare. Hans
utgångspunkt är ständigt ensamhetens frihet och tvång. Det kritiska
perspektivet på människan och samhället följer alltid 'den inre och
undre vägen' för att tala med en av hans estetiska fränder: Gunnar
Ekelöf." -Magnus William-Olsson, Aftonbladet

En boks som inneholder faksimiler av de 7 første numre av Tomines
selvutgitte Optic Nerve.
"Adrian Tomine is simply too good for his age. He is easily the most
prodigious talent to burst on the alternative scene in several years, and
if you read Optic Nerve you'll see why". Ikke så dumt skussmål
å få fra The Comics Journal. I denne samlinga presenteres
Tomines første små historier, eller grafiske noveller. Tidvis mer rufsete
i streken enn den senere samlinga Sleepwalk and Other Stories, men
med en fin nerve og flere supre kortfortellinger. Sjekk for eksempel den
eksistensialistiske historien Haircut eller lett Pekar-inspirerte
Allergic.

”Private detective Fernández Britten is an old hand at
confirming the dark suspicions of jealous lovers and exposing ugly truths
of all varieties. Battered by years of bearing ill tidings, he clings to
the hope of revealing, just once, a truth that will do some good in the
world. It is a redemption that has long eluded him.”
”A haunting story of love and grief, sharply written and
luminously drawn, Britten and Brülightly is sure to establish
Hannah Berry in the front rank of graphic novelists.” –fra

”…truths that make Al Gore's inconveniences pale in

”Razor-sharp critique packaged as cute-kid-and-funny-animal

”Thought-provoking. What if it is true that our self-righteous
recycling habits matter not at all, and are just a way for The Man to keep
us down while feeling better about ourselves?”
-Jo Stiegerwald, Cleveland Free Times
”Jensen takes the complexity of anti-civilization philosophy and
distills it down to one important message. If we can't stop destroying
everything, soon we’ll have destroyed everything.”

"Fifteen years ago, Dashiell "Dash" Bad Horse ran away
from a life of abject poverty and utter hopelessness on the Prairie Rose
Indian Reservation searching for something better. Now he's come back to
find nothing much has changed on "The Rez" - short of a
glimmering new casino, and a once-proud people overcome by drugs and
organized crime." -Vertigo

"After a boy at school takes his own life, teen-witch Skim's fragile
world seems to topple and turn upside down too. In witty, moving and
painfully honest diary entries Skim confides the frenzy of grief that
surrounds her, while deep down she struggles with her own loneliness and
the secret inner stirrings she feels when falling in love for the first
time." -fra omslaget

"This collection of five short comics stories by new talent
Amanda Vähämäki is drawn together with an intriguing
disjointed rhythm and delicious pencil-smudged style, and infused with a
sense of abbreviated adolescence and a kind of grey sky banality. On the
surface the stories are characterized by a surreal ebb-and-flow, but each
also possesses a deep sense of foreboding and hurt, and maintains a biting
sense of humor.
The Bun Field is Vähämäki’s first
graphic novel, which has been published in several languages. In this
story, a young girl dreams of a dinosaur eating Donald Duck; wakes to find
a bald, hulking stranger sharing her breakfast; leaves to take a car trip
with a bear; falls and breaks a tooth, to have it replaced by an impatient
dentist—from his dog’s mouth no less; and pays back the favor
by plowing a field of buns. Likewise, young people and anthropomorphic
animals commingle in dreamy landscapes throughout the other tales collected
in this edition, performing mundane tasks that are skewed with an absurd
and fantastic edge. What do you get when you mix fish guts, jungle gyms,
stamps, barmaids, soda pop and burning cities?" -Drawn &
