WAREHOUSE FIND!!! – all copies in brand new condition, complete with original obi band.

Here's a holiday "Hail Mary" gift: a BRAND NEW copy of the original 2006 edition of the Ron Regé, Jr. classic, The Awake Field, long a Copacetic favorite.

Here's our original write-up (from almost twenty years ago now!):

An all new work by one of the most unique voices in contemporary comics, The Awake Field has our vote as the work that most fully realizes Rege's artistic vision.  It is a beautifully drawn, designed and produced square format volume.  Printed in two colors, the color field is employed with a nuanced delicacy that is integral to the effect that this work achieves as it penetrates the reader's senses. Bound with a full color flexi cover and endpapers, this book is an aesthetic treat and a bargain to boot. There's nothing out there in any medium to compare to Regé's work.  We say: a must!

It seems to us that, with this work, Ron Regé, Jr. is channelling the spirit of the 20th century American painter, Charles Burchfield into 21st century comics.  Like Burchfield's paintings, Regé's comics in this volume fill the viewer/reader with a sense of wonder at the impossible beauty and strange otherness of nature.  The Awake Field really puts you there, it communicates, it catalyzes neurons to fire in new patterns that trigger new thoughts and new ways of seeing the world as an... awake field.

Plus: for those unfamiliar with this work, we've posted a gallery of pages frpom the book, HERE.

And: Special Price! (we were selling what we thought we our few remaining copies for over 50% more)
