<<•>>  edited & designed by Sam Arthur & Alex Spiro  <<•>>  Look no further, the brain blasting book to beat is here.  Nobrow 6 is a double dose of doppelganger doubling that takes full advantage of the "69" format.  64 double page spreads each tackle this issue's theme of "The Double".  Start with Tom Gauld's cover for the "Comics" side and then, when you reach the center pivot – Robert Hunter's "Anchor Point" – you flip the book over mid-strip and then continue with the "Illustration" side, concluding with Gwenola Carrere's cover; or vice versa, if you prefer.  The fabulous flat planar color of the Nobrow house style is in full effect throughout, and is, as always, an æsthetic treat.  The real thrill here comes from the integration of comics into Nobrow's flagship title.  Here's our vote for it's continuance.  Contributor's include Kevin Huizenga, Michael DeForge, Joseph Lambert, Luke Pearson, Blanquet, and many other fine comickers, including the pole star in the Nobrow firmament, Jon McNaught.  Make sure you pick this up and look through it.  You won't want to put it down.  

Now out of print.  We are down to our last couple copies... GONE!

This is the second of the new NoBrow double-sided, flip-cover format.  Half fabulous doublepage-spread illustration, half way cool four-page comics stories, NoBrow 7 is all good.  This volume's theme is "Brave New World" and all the various interpretations that can be made of that theme.  The comics section is full of surprises, beginning with a new one-pager by the elusive Joost Swarte it continues with page after muted, flat color page of fresh, new work by the likes of Michael DeForge, Eleanor Davis, Joseph Lambert, Luke Pearson, Jillian Tamaki, Tom Gauld, and many others including yet another stylistic experiment from Anders Nilsen, before finishing up with a dash of continuity in the clever recapitulative pair of "Space Cadet" strips by a new-to-us creator, Andrew Rea, that combines the theme of last issue ("The Double") with this issue's "Brave New World."  On the illustration front, there are thirty vibrant spreads by a group of amazing artists the name of most of whom will be unfamiliar to Copacetic customers – now – but after checking out their work here, they will transformed into names worth remembering; among them, Angie Wang, Ana Galvañ, Céline Desrumaux, Sergi Solons, Lotta Nieminen, Mayumi Otero and Robert Mackenzie – just for starters.
