It
Was a Dark and Silly Night Ed. Art Spiegelman, featuring Tony Millionaire, Neil Gaiman, J. Otto Siebold and others We planted a seed in some of the most fertile minds of the planet: cartoonists, novelists, and children's book artists. We asked them to start a story with the words: It Was a Dark and Silly Night... We wanted to know...What happened next??? What grew from the seed is this generous, chock-full, over-the-top jungle of silly comic book stories that show how rich the human imagination is. Lemony Snicket and Richard Sala imagined a dark and silly night where a young girl chases after a Yeti. Neil Gaiman and Gahan Wilson imagined a dark and silly night where kids throw the greatest party they ever had...in a graveyard! William Joyce tells us about kids whose Silly Ray saves the world from warrior florists. This collection of wild and silly imaginings will tickle your funny bone for years to come. hardback $55 |

Ring: Volume 1 The Ring, a Japanese multi-media frenzy based on the best-selling horror novels by Koji Suzuki, has already made its way to America in both a Western adaptation of the film, and an equally popular dubbed Japanese version of the film. Well, from Dark Horse Comics comes the equally fantastic manga, and it will be published, respectfully, in the increasingly popular "non-Western" format, meaning you get a kick out of reading from the back of the book to the front. For those of you who love your media in comic book form, you'll love seeing this creepy tidbit panel to panel, and for those who love film, step forward and find out why filmmakers idolize comics. paperback $30.00 |

Notes
From A Defeatist Part documentary, part satirical autobiography and part satire, this title collects all the shorter works that launched Joe Sacco on the path to his book-length "Palestine", from one-page gags to 30-page "graphic novelettes". The centrepieces of this work are a triptych of war stories. paperback $39.95 |

Palestine
In 1991 Sacco travelled to Jerusalem to observe Palestinians living under Israeli occupation. Out of that trip comes this highly ambitious and successful telling of the refugees' stories. Combining the techniques of eyewitness reportage with the medium of comic-book storytelling to explore the complex, emotionally weighty subject of Palestine, this one-volume work combines the previously published nine-issue comic series that won a 1996 American Book Award. paperback $45.00 |
