(E) Brendan Burford A graphic anthology with a unique hook: Syncopated collects the best in nonfiction by today's most talented graphic artists. The graphic medium has become a popular and provocative platform for nonfiction, and this innovative anthology collects powerful memoirs, profiles, and reportage from gifted, up-and-coming creators. Go back back in time to the glory days of old Coney Island and meet fascinating personalities: graffiti artists, the inventor of the Dvorak keyboard, and psychologist Erik Eriksen. Discover forgotten history and new perspectives on critical current-day issues, and immerse yourself in fascinating subcultures, such as the infamous chess players of New York City's Washington Square Park. Think of this as a New Yorker for the comics set: a collection of stimulating, eye-opening pieces on subjects political, historical, artistic, and personal.

(W) Harvey Pekar (A) Summer McClinton Harvey Pekar changed the face of comics with American Splendor, replacing traditional slam-bang superhero action with slice-of-life tales of his own very ordinary existence in Cleveland, Ohio. Pekar's deadpan chronicles of regular life, peppered with wry and caustic reflections, have transformed comics from escapist fantasy into social commentary with voice balloons. Huntington, West Virginia: On the Fly recounts the irascible everyman's on-the-road encounters with a cross section of characters, all of whom have their own stories to tell.

by Koren Shadmi This collection of short stories in graphic form introduces us to one of the most powerful new voices in comics: Koren Shadmi. In the Flesh feels like a collaboration between David Cronenberg and Daniel Clowes. Shadmi uses darkly poetic and rich, absurdist imagery to take us into the dangerous heart of romantic love. In 'Antoinette,' a young man becomes obsessed with the girl of his dreams. In 'Hunger,' a near-death experience takes away a woman's will to live and love - but awakens in her a dark and insatiable appetite. In 'Radioactive Girl' a student is destroyed by his love for a young woman whose powerful allure is literally nuclear. In these stories and more, Shadmi has created a haunting gallery of lost souls.

by Carol Lay For most of her life Carol Lay tried unsuccessfully to lose weight. She tried diet pills, low carb and food combination diets, hypnosis, and Weight Watchers, but never managed to keep the weight off for more than a few months. But five years ago something clicked - Carol reached her goal weight of 125 pounds and has maintained it ever since. The California cartoonist shows how she lost weight by exercising and counting calories, conveying information, encouragement, and experience through poignant, humorous, and imaginative stories. She's been there, and she'll tell you and show you what it was like - and she'll give you the tools and inspiration so you can do it, too. The fun part is, it's all in full-color comic form - sugarcoating that doesn't add a single calorie! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by the Creators of OOP The phrase 'Out of Picture' comes from film terminology - whenever something is cut from a movie it is declared 'out of picture,' or 'OOPed.' In the words of one of the creators, 'while it can be frustrating to let go of one's ideas, it's the pursuit and exploration of those ideas that can be the most fulfilling. We wanted to share some of our personal ideas outisde of our film work with you - out of picture.' The result is a stunning collection of full-color graphic novel short stories that pushes the medium to entirely new heights. The creators all hail from Academy Award-winning Blue Sky Studios, and have worked on films such as Toy Story 3 and Ice Age 3. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
