Book Description
In this book, Lane remasters milieus, attitudes, and cultural touchstones of the 20th century: wry slice-of-life vignettes are depicted in moodily crosshatched, noir-inflected drawings. Jazz clubs and pool halls, ballparks and graveyards, casinos and coffeehouses, back alleys and bus stops are populated by roughed-up boxers, bleary gamblers, rowdy winos, philosophical rail-riders, acrobatic fire-swallowers, and femme fatales - woven together into a uniquely designed collection of images and prose.

Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
ISBN: 1683963997
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
As Now hits its landmark tenth issue, what better time to bring back the cover artist who launched the series? Painter and cartoonist Rebecca Morgan returns with one of her signature depictions of the underbelly of America. Meanwhile, the issue also features new work by a number of familiar names, such as Steven Weissman, Tim Lane, and Walt Holcombe. Young Frances creator Hartley Lin contributes his first piece to the magazine, as does Italian cartoonist Sylvia Rocchi and American cartoonist M.S. Harkness ― with a piece about competitive weightlifting during the Covid-19 pandemic! Along with other surprises, Now #10 includes one other special feature: a tribute to the late cartoonist Richard Sala (1954-2020), a cartoonist who built his long career contributing to various anthologies of the 1980s, including the legendary Raw magazine. We are pleased to present nine previously unpublished pages of comics by Sala, all created as an art student in the 1970s and presaging a prolific and brilliant oeuvre to come. Also: comics by Nick Thorburn, Jacob Weinstein, Joakim Drescher, and Julia Gfrörer.
