Paperback. Zustand: Good. Best known for his wildly imaginative, gleefully absurdist television show in the 1950s, Ernie Kovacs (1919-1962) was also a notorious illustrator, novelist, essayist, newspaper columnist, and poet. In celebration of this cockeyed genius and his prolific creative output, Fantagraphics presents a career retrospective featuring never-before-seen photos from Kovacs's archive; excerpts of his magazine articles, columns and books, hand-notated TV scripts; a smattering of his 'illustrated profuselies', the wacky improvisational sketches he drew on air; and more. Curated by Josh Mills (son of Edie Adams, Kovacs's wife and a performer on his show), Edie/Ernie archivist Ben Model, and counterculture historian Pat Thomas, the book offers a unique glimpse into the mind of a pioneering comedian. Kovacs inspired countless comedians, musicians, humorists, and writers in the latter half of the 20th century and beyond. He is cited as a direct influence by the creators and stars of such innovative comedy series as Saturday Night Live, Monty Python, and Mystery Science Theater 3000. An award in his name has been granted to uproarious humorists like Amy Sedaris (Strangers with Candy) and Harry Shearer (This is Spinal Tap). A true visionary, Kovacs's iconoclastic approach has forever made its mark on the world of comedy. …

Hardback. Zustand: Good. A comprehensive collection of the American humorist's best work-including "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty"-plus original drawings and a chronology of Thurber's own troubled life James Thurber, whimsical fantasist and deadpan chronicler of everyday absurdities, brought American humor into the 20th century. His comic persona, a modern city-dweller whose zaniest flights of free association are tinged with anxiety, remains hilarious, subtly disturbing, and instantly recognizable. Here, in over 1,000 pages, editor Garrison Keillor presents the best and most extensive collection ever assembled. Pieces include "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" and "The Catbird Seat," the brilliantly satiricalFables for Our Time, the classicMy Life and Hard Times, and the best ofThe Owl in the Attic,Let Your Mind Alone!,My World-And Welcome to It, and the other famous books. Plus 500 wonderful drawings, includingThe Seal in the Bedroomand celebrated sequences like "The Masculine Approach" and "The War Between Men and Women." Rounding out the volume is a selection fromThe Years with Ross, a memoir of theNew Yorkerpublisher, and a number of wonderful early pieces never collected by Thurber. Only a book of this scope can do justice to Thurber's extraordinary career and to the many unexpected turns of his comic genius.
