It's here: the last piece of the Spiegelman puzzle.Co-Mixpublishes an vast career-spanning array of Spiegelmania; taken together with the recently (re)publishedBreakdowns, it brings (back) into print the vast majority of Art's miscellanea: short pieces, comix, prints,New Yorkercovers, etc. While the wide world knows him almost solely through his perennial best-seller,Maus, within the world of comics his influence has been felt more through the works contained here. This book serves double duty as the catalogue for the exhibition of the same name that was produced by 9eArt+ for the 2012 Angoulême comics festival, and which, after travelling...

Miraculously, after two decades of less than stellar recordings, Iggy has managed a return to form here on this album, produced at age 65 and released close on the heels of his 66th birthday. This is doubtless due in no small measure to the return of James Williamson on the heels of the multi-year reunion of Iggy with the (almost) original Stooges line-up. The presence of the Ron and Scott Asheton was not enough to saveThe Weirdness. Ready to Die is another story, however. Backed by James Williamson on multiple-tracked guitars, Scott Asheton on Drums, Mike Watt on Bass and Steve Mackay on Sax (of which there is plenty) as well as a number...

Street Angel is BACK... in print. Street Angel: Princess of Poverty is an expanded softcover reprint of the AdHouse hardcover from several years back, which was itself an expanded reissue of the Slave Labor softcover collection of several years prior to that. All three editions collect the five-issue run of the original black & white Street Angel series published by Slave Labor Press coming up on twenty years ago now(!), along with ever increasing amounts of bonus material. So, with each iteration, The Princess of Poverty gets bigger and better!

This volume is, thus, the biggest and best yet! It includes everything in the previous...

This is a moment we've been waiting for for quite awhile. In our opinion, the least appreciated and most misunderstood science fiction writer of modern times, James Tiptree, Jr. (the nom de plume of Alice Sheldon) is a writer of breathtaking originality who is still ahead of her time, nearly twenty years after her death. That all of her work -- with the exception of a single "loose ends" collection that was published three years ago -- has been out of print for years is, in our opinion, a negligence that borders on the criminal. Thankfully ("Thank you, Tachyon Publications, thank you."), this situation has now come to an end with the...

Craig Thompson's long awaited follow up to Blankets – one of the most widely and loudly lauded graphic novels in history – is now weighing heavily on the shelves here at Copacetic. A sprawling, multi-layered, multi-faceted, multi-pronged work, Habibi is part history lesson, part tutorial, part travelogue, part anthro/socio/psychological study, part sermon, and all love story. Thompson clearly had outsized ambitions for this work, likely necessitated by the high expectations surrounding any follow up to Blankets. It's always an additional challenge for creators to follow up a highly praised work. Should they try to compete with their big...

This 320 page, full color, 8 1/2" x 12" hardcover volume is a fantastic collection of some of the finest prints ever produced. It presents full-page, full color reproductions of all 118 of Hiroshige's Edo prints, along with copious notes, supporting illustrations and an appendix of reduced-size, "thumbnail" reproductions of the numerous variations among the different versions of the print editions; hundreds in all.

Amazing! Recommended! Deal!

Incomplete Worksprovides, indirectly, an intimate, informative, entertaining portrait of the artist as a young cartoonist – who goes on to age gracefully and productively – with a large degree of creative independence – into marriage, fatherhood and middle-age (which is no small feat). It does so while simultaneously fulfilling its primary function of being a treasure trove of short comics of all stripes. Auto-bio, fantasy, literary, historical, humorous, scientific, and meta-physical comics can each be found here, all handledby Horrockswith dextrous aplomb. That he has been able to accomplish all this may have something to due with his...
