Heksa Megg og katten Mogg, sammen med vennene Owl og Werewolf Jones, er til stadighet utfordret av depresjoner, narkotikamisbruk, seksualitet, fattigdom, tiltaksløshet og forholdene seg imellom. Det er tungsinn bak den avsindige humoren og følelser bak galskapen. Denne boka samler alle Hanselmanns bidrag til Vice samt andre fargerike overraskelser som utvider Megahex-universet.
"Originally published by Kitchen Sink Press in 1996, Art
& Beauty Magazine, Number 1 is at once a satirical take on
aesthetics and a continued exploration of Crumb’s subversion of sexuality
and mainstream values. Drawings of women in positions ranging from
lascivious to modest or mid-sport are accompanied by quotations, many of
which are from artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Harvey Kurtzman. Mining
his own obsessions and fantasies, Crumb reimagines the history of art,
challenging notions of beauty, along with society’s mores and
expectations of propriety around the female form. The second volume of
Art & Beauty, published in 2003, expanded on the first, adding all
new drawings (also of women) and
quotations, likewise taken from the history of art and aesthetics. The
effect of both volumes is undeniably destabilizing. The images appeal to a
purely erotic sensibility, which in turn is undercut by the inclusion of
highfalutin and frequently philosophical prose. The images drag philosophy
back down to earth, while the writing challenges the pure eroticism of
Crumb’s drawings.
The eagerly awaited Art & Beauty, Number 3 is released for the
first time as part of Art & Beauty Magazine: Drawings by R.
Crumb. It is published on the occasion of Crumb's exhibition at David
Zwirner, London, which debuts the new work he created for the magazine’s
third issue. Presenting all three volumes in one book, Art & Beauty
Magazine is arranged chronologically and guides the reader through the
twenty-year history of Crumb’s magazine, from the earliest images in the
1990s to the most recent drawings completed in 2016."
"Featuring over a dozen literary comic shorts by acclaimed cartoonist Noah Van Sciver. Whether in his fiction (Fante Bukowski) or nonfiction (The Hypo: The Melancholic Young Lincoln), Van Sciver has carved a niche as a keen observer of the human condition, exploring the decisions people make that make, break, and define them. Disquiet showcases the best of his short work, including: The Death Of Elijah Lovejoy, the story of the midwestern abolitionist in the 1830s who published a radical newspaper that denounced slavery and provoked local mobs to destroy his printing presses; The Lizard Who Laughed, a painfully dysfunctional reunion between an absent father and his adult son; and Punks V. Lizards, an anarchic and darkly comic piece of absurdity that blends Quadrophenia with Jurassic Park."
"It's 1860 in New York City. When 12-year-old twins Alexander and Cleopatra's father disappears, they join the Black Hook Gang and are caught by the police pulling off a heist. They agree to reveal the identity of the gang in exchange for tickets to New Orleans. But once there, Alex is shanghaied to work on a ship that is heading for San Francisco via Cape Horn. Cleo stows away on a steamer to New Granada where she hopes to catch a train to San Francisco to find her brother. Neither Alexander nor Cleo realizes the real danger they are in - they are being followed by pirates who think they hold the key to treasure. How they outwit the pirates and find each other makes for a fast-paced, breathtaking adventure."
"Hot Dog Taste Test serves up Lisa Hanawalt's devastatingly
funny comics, saliva-stimulating art, and deliciously screwball lists as
she skewers the pomposities of foodie subculture. From the James Beard
Award-winning cartoonist and production
designer/producer of Bojack Horseman, Hot Dog Taste Test
dishes out five-star laughs as Hanawalt keenly muses on pop culture,
relationships, and the animal in all of us."
Woods (DMZ) voldsomme vikingserie i en ny utgave som sånn omtrent samler innholdet i album 01-03 (blad nr. 1-16, 18-19 og 41) . Det er en fryd å lese amerikansk vikingaction som er rimelig fri for hjelmhorn og repeterende rop til Odin. Wood har gjort sin research og resultatet er fantasy av ypperste sort.
I Frank Millers mesterverk fra 1986 - The Dark Knight Returns - er Batman 20 år eldre, og han er plassert i en mer brutal og reell verden. Millers mesterstykke er at han makter både å få frem det mytiske ved figuren og å forankre serien i virkelighetens verden. Serien ekstremiserer trekk fra media og samfunnet, i et Gotham hvor kriminaliteten har løpt løpsk. Superheltmytologien belyses ved kritikk av de fascistiske trekkene, samtidig som serien spør om det likevel er nødvendig med en sterk mann for å sikre samfunnets orden. Miller viser en overlegen beherskelse av tegneseriens virkemidler, med filmatiske forløp, dynamisk layout og skarphugget språkføring. Serien egner seg for ungdom og voksne.
