KHAAAAAANN!
Before its voluntary departure from the Washington Post, "Liberty Meadows" had gained a loyal following that brought it back from possible cancellation more than once. Now this kooky strip and its bizarre characters are back in this book, "Liberty Meadows 1: Eden." Welcome to Liberty Meadows, an animal preserve overseen by timid vet Frank and beautiful animal shrink Brandy. As Frank tries to ...

Great read and informative. Many artist's draw and ink the same story but with their own perspectives. Many tips on working methods for comic artists.

Better than a box fulla comix
Agreed, great way to catch up. Less expensive than hunting down the real deal and takes up less space in the closet. Includes all pages of the real issue including the Alt covers and letters to the editor. Engage way back machine (some advertisements too)! The PDF format is high quality so you can zoom in very close. The only problem I had was that I had to zoom in to read the text which ...

Japan-French collaboration
A good introduction to two different graphic novel markets and an effort toward connecting the two. I'd recommend anything by the publisher, Ponent and all work by Taiyo Matsumoto.

Fantastic survey of classic comics
I'm a big web-spinning Spider-Man fanboy, no doubt about it. And to that geek, this book rocks hard. It's a 200-page series of interviews with some of the biggest creators of Spider-Man comic books over the past 40 years, from Stan Lee to Todd McFarlane to Brian Bendis. And it's just packed full of trivia, insight and critiques. I really get into these "behind the scenes" comic tomes, and this ...

The funniest book you'll read in years
Imagine the fantasy and imagination of The Princess Bride; take the joie de vivre of Pirates Of The Caribbean; mix it a little with the eccentricity of Carry On Don't Lose Your Head (leaving out the tackier parts of the humour) and then take each of your favourite pirate stereotypes (bad guys, good guys, black spots, needlessly evil Spaniards, sword fights and derring-do) and turn it into ...

OH CAPTAIN HADDOCK ! MY CAPTAIN HADDOCK ! HÉLAS THE TRIP IS DONE...
The only problem with this book is that Hergé is dead and Tintin is gone. The author, Michael Farr, perhaps now *the* top ranking European Tintinologist, after his splendid "Tintin - the complete companion" (available at Amazon for under 20 dollars), continues to develop his très fantastique tintinesque series about everything tintin: all the characters, all the stories, but above all, ALL THE ...

A must read for any student, reader or fan of the comics medium.
I've been waiting for R.C. Harvey to publish his biography of Milt Caniff ever since he casually mentioned it in the pages of his fine book, "The Art of the Funnies", over ten years ago. The resulting book is not only one of the finest comics oriented biographies but it's a great book in and of itself. I have to admit that after it arrived I was a little intimidated by it. It is after all a ...

Loved this book
This and Mr. DeFalco's book of interviews about Spider-Man are two of the best books about comics I've ever read. It's so nice to have someone who was involved with the creations interacting with his peers. I hope they do more books like this, even though I know the FF and Spider-Man were DeFalco's two longest-running series.

Man and Super Men
Time was when a comic book wouldn't have had a snowball's chance in Hades of getting into a library's collection. And while some library systems have grown more open to the notion of comic book heroes leaping about their hallowed halls, there's still a great deal of resistance to the idea. Now Marc Tyler Nobleman and Ross MacDonald have found another way to get a fella like Superman into a ...
