FROM THE ARCHIVES

We just found a (very) small stack of new hardcover copies of this long out of print 2007 Release!

Introduction by Mr. Ivan Brunetti!

"Holcombe is largely to blame for enticing me to the medium.  His work is a cartoon Trojan horse that lures the reader with bouncing whinsical brush lines and then unleashes the most lonely and brutal sentiments.  Musical, poetic and ornamental, a blend of Victorian novels and Dr. Suess." – Craig Thompson

"Walt Holcombe seems woefully underrated to me. Especially because he's such a rare combination: a sensitive mind, a wide-ranging imagination, and a virtuoso of pure cartooning. What is wrong with a world where everyone doesn't know this man's name?!!" -- Seth

"Walt Holcombe is a true original; his jazzy drawings and mellifluous prose (to say nothing of his partiality for pathetic nebbishes, marine adventure, and "the exotic") concoct a personal, perfectly-timed viand redolent of 1920s humorists, Cliff Sterrett, and, more than anything, of Walt himself. I should also add that a big-hearted compassion backs his work like a stretched canvas behind paint." -- Chris Ware
