Perhaps the single greatest science-fiction-adventure bande dessinée series of all time, the six-volumeseries that was originally published in France throughout the 1980s has at last been collected in its entirety in a single 316 pagesoftcover volume for a price that works out to less than $4.50 per volume – barely more than a standard American comic book.

Back in print at last, this classic memoir of Chester's high school obsession with Playboy Magazine disabused Hugh Hefner of his notion that Playboy was just good clean fun - but only for the five minutes or so it took him to put it out of his mind. Other, more engaged thinkers will hold onto this impression a bit longer. It's hard for most to realize in this day and age when the high school memoir is a major staple of the comics – or should we say, graphic novel – market, but when the comics that make up this volume, and its companion piece, I Never Liked You, were first serialized in the pages of Yummy Fur, they were like nothing anyone...

The sub-title does not lie: this book isindeed chock full of tales of mischief.

These are kids comics par excellence; think Dennis the Menace without the hyperbole. In Akissi, the world of childhood comes alive on the page: the zany antics, the interactions of children withtheir parents and peers, the...

The most critically lauded graphic novel of the year has arrived!

Chris Ware: "Some middle-aged colleagues and I believe literary comics fiction is possible without resorting to fantastical heroics, however, and the youngest and finest exemplar, 28-year-old Nick Drnaso, offers a new book to possibly top us all:Sabrina, about a missing woman, a video and the unspeakable possibilities of our contemporary mitigated reality."

Zadie Smith: "Nick Drnaso's Sabrina is the best book – in any medium – I have read about our current moment. It is a masterpiece, beautifully written and drawn, possessing all the political power of polemic and yet...
