murder as well, even though the victim is often Tomie herself. While one
lover seeks to keep her for himself, another grows terrified of the
immortal succubus. But soon they realize that no matter how many times they
kill her, the world will never be free of Tomie."

"This new book presents the biggest, richest and most delightful
collection of Tyler's work to date featuring many new and previously
unpublished works. In Migrant
Mother, Tyler tells the grueling story of a cross-country trip with
the flu and her terrible-twos toddler using her trademark combination of
rueful humor and empathy. The full-color Just a Bad Seed is a meditation on a problem child who
might not be such a problem after all, while The Return of Mrs. Kite chronicles a family crisis - how
her widowed grandmother fell in with a beau of questionable character.
Gone (also in full color) is a
stirring meditation on all kinds of loss, and Why I'm A-gin' Southern Men is a classic rant that dissects
that particular breed of male - or at least a certain subspecies of
"ex"es - with pitiless wit. Other stories include Sweet Miss Lee (a reminiscence of an
immigrant roommate and her fate), There's
Something Wrong with a Perfect Lawn (a tale of suburban
obsessiveness), Little Crosshatch
Mind (where artistic impulses come from), and Uncovered Property (discovering the
power of sexuality at an early age). Tyler works equally well in delicately
crisp black-and-white penstrokes and lushly watercolored paintings (this
book features over 30 pages of her stunning full-color work). All told, the
three-dozen stories here cement Tyler's reputation as a cartoonist to be
reckoned with."

THE GRAPHIC NOVEL - UNAUTORIZED ADAPTION
"For his newest project, R. Sikoryak tackles the monstrously and
infamously dense legal document, iTunes
Terms and Conditions, the contract everyone agrees to but no one
reads. In a word for word 94-page adaptation, Sikoryak hilariously turns
the agreement on its head - each page features an avatar of Apple cofounder and legendary visionary
Steve Jobs juxtaposed with a different classic strip such as Mort
Walker’s Beatle Bailey, or a
contemporary graphic novel such as Craig Thompson’s Blankets or Marjane Satrapi’s
Persepolis.
Adapting the
legalese of the iTunes Terms and
Conditions into another medium seems like an unfathomable
undertaking, yet Sikoryak creates a surprisingly readable document, far
different from its original, purely textual incarnation and thus proving
the accessibility and flexibility of comics.
When Sikoryak parodies
Kate Beaton’s Hark A Vagrant
peasant comics with Steve Jobs discussing objectionable material or Homer
Simpson as Steve Jobs warning of the penalties of copyright infringement,
Terms and Conditions serves as a
surreal record of our modern digital age where technology competes with
enduringly ironclad mediums."

"Imagine Karl Marx as a cartoonist, ready to set the record straight
about his much maligned classic, Das Kapital. Impossibly
difficult? Not in the least. Hopelessly outdated? Far from it. Though first
published in 1867, Capital remains keenly relevant. Society
continues to run on investment and profit, labor and technology. And
predictions that once might have seemed rash - global economic crisis,
societies nearing bankruptcy - are now simply facts. Capital remains the
fullest attempt to explain these facts, and Marx's Capital
Illustrated brings this attempt to vibrant life, proceeding all the
way from the ABCs to the pertinence of Marx's theory of crisis for today's
global woes.
Fresh, funny, and copiously illustrated, this book is for everyone who
wants better insight into Capital and capitalism."
