Hidden Gems from Fantagraphics!
Featuring a host of in-demand creators - including R. Crumb, Barry Windsor-Smith, Peter Bagge, and more - Fantagraphics' family of titles has something for even the most demanding comics reader, including:

Barry Windsor-Smith's Adastra In Africa: Did you know that this original Barry Windsor-Smith graphic novel, unavailable anywhere else, was originally supposed to be the third in his "Lifedeath" issues for Marvel's X-Men? When the editors opposed his portrayal of Storm, he turned it into a graphic novel starring Adastra from the "Young Gods" cast of Barry Windsor-Smith's Storyteller.

Book Of Changes: A Collection of Interviews: This book of interviews includes full-page illustrations by such cartooning legends as R. Crumb, Chris Ware, Charles Burns, and Arnold Roth. It features probing interviews with pop culture luminaries like R. Crumb, James Brown, Pete Townsend, David Lynch, Neil Young, William Burroughs, Bo Diddley, and more. Almost 40 interviews in all, this is a perfect hook for the comics shop trying to attract a wider range of pop culture consumers.

The Enigma of Al Capp: This probing exposé of the legendary creator of Li'l Abner is written by a National Book Award-winning novelist! Author Alexander Theroux traces Capp's evolution into a bitterly conservative curmudgeon with a flair and insight unusual for most books about comics. And it's inexpensive at only $6.95!

Glam Warp: Peter Bagge's Harvey Award-nominated inker of Hate, Jim Blanchard, is also an accomplished illustrator in his own right. This oversized collection of mutant pin-ups recalls the 1960s, the heyday of the underground poster.

Powerhouse Pepper: Acclaimed MAD cartoonist Basil Wolverton created a hilarious 1950s comic about a big lug who loved to fight. You can get them all right here, in one book.

Reading the Funnies: This collection of essays about classic newspaper comic strips not only won a 2002 American Book Award for nonfiction excellence, but also includes over 100 pages of examples of vintage newspaper strips that Phelps is writing about, including Gasoline Alley, Little Orphan Annie, Popeye, Dick Tracy, and many more!

Why Did Pete Duel Kill Himself?: Before Mark Kalesniko created the Harvey, Eisner, and Firecracker Book Award-nominated Mail-Order Bride - now sold out - he created this touching, original graphic novel about the loss of adolescence. Did you also know that Kalesniko is a Disney Animator whose credits include Mulan, The Lion King, and other hits?

Recipe for Disaster and Other Stories: Scratchboard cartoonist Penny Van Horn is also an accomplished animator who most recently worked on the Oscar-nominated film, Waking Life - her only collection of comics is available from Fantagraphics!

White Like She: This graphic novel by Bob Fingerman, telling the story of a rich white man and poor black man who have their brains transplanted into each other's body, has been praised by the likes of Will Eisner for its realism and thought provoking subject matter.

Your Vigor for Life Appalls Me: The R. Crumb Letters: Tthis collection of private correspondence written to lifelong friends of R. Crumb spans 20 years and is comprised entirely of material that has never appeared elsewhere, including several letters executed in comic strip form. A must-have for any store that stocks underground comics.

Opus Posters 1 and 2: Barry Windsor-Smith, whose fine art prints now command hundreds of dollars, has created and released these two inexpensive and oversized posters of two of his most classic paintings.
