We're happy to announce the first batch of graphic novels from a new publisher devoted solely to the publication of quality graphic novels in the European tradition: :01 - First Second. The works here in their first batch place this publisher on the aesthetic spectrum somewhere between Drawn & Quarterly and NBM, along with seeming ambitions to compete with Pantheon's graphic novel line. These works are certainly worth a look. We can easily recommend the Eddie Campbell as a fresh, delightful and adventurous take on the nascent conventions of the graphic novel that show evidence that he wants to keep playing with those conventions to keep them fast and loose and prevent them from becoming set in stone.
