Paperback. Zustand: Fair. What is Art? It's widely accepted that art serves an important function in society. But the concept falls under such an absurdly large umbrella and can manifest in so many different ways. Art can be self-indulgent, goofy, serious, altruistic, evil, or expressive, or any number of other things. But how can it truly make lasting, positive change? In Why Art?, acclaimed graphic novelist Eleanor Davis (How To Be Happy) unpacks some of these concepts in ways both critical and positive, in an attempt to illuminate the highest possible potential an artwork might hope to achieve.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. By turns poignant, hilarious and confounding, Greenberger's interviews with nursing home residents have made his zine Duplex Planet a cult favourite for over 20 years.

And finally you are stunned by the realisation that we all live on Duplex Planet.' - Matt Groening. …

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Master cartoonist Mikael Ross (The Thud) tells the story of Beethoven's years leading up to Beethoven's first major public appearance in Vienna in 1795. The Beethoven family lived a difficult life in Bonn. Only young Ludwig and his talent at the piano offer any hope for the future - if he would stop composing his own pieces and play what's expected of him. In 20??, Mikael Ross was asked to do a small comic for the Beethoven Society. Through this opportunity he discovered the diaries of the baker's son that lived downstairs from Beethoven's family, the content of which inspired THE GOLDEN BOY.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Fans of Peter Bagge's generation-defining satirical fiction may not realise this, but the cartoonist doubles as an opinionated cuss - and has been contributing provocative (but still hilarious) comic-strip opinion pieces to Reason magazine for several years. These thought-provoking works are finally collected in this glorious, four-colour cartoon collection.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The 'Once Party' menu, for ages 11 and up, can only be ordered once (of course). But there's a catch: not everyone who does gets the special prize. Those who do, go to a room where they can view five minutes of one of three moments in their future. Galvan manages to create a vivid world that is both a recognizable and alien depiction of adolescence. There are mean girls, and fast food, and BFFs with crappy older brothers, as well as familiar hints of 1990s design and fashion. Yet, it's also rife with futuristic flourishes like little robotic eggs that walk and talk, like anthropomorphic Alexas. At its heart, however, Afternoon at McBurger's is a timeless story about friendship and innocence and the discoveries of adolescence (both good and bad), with layers to be revealed only through multiple readings. And Galvan's visual style, anchored by a mastery of pastel and primary colors, will make you want to do so immediately.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Newly single fortysomethings Maria Bamford and Scott Cassidy each signed up on the dating site OkCupid, under the respective usernames 'Hogbook' and 'Lazer Eyes.' They went on a date, and then another, and soon, despite a history of Bipolar II disorder and unhealthy relationships for each of them, they fell in love and were married in 2015. We view all of this through the prism of their pug housemates, including Blueberry and Bert (who has an unnatural obsession with Michael Flatley of 'Riverdance' fame), and the elderly bonded pair Betty and Arnold (who recount their star turn as interplanetary canine scientists in the second season of Lady Dynamite). Cassidy's fine art training translates with ease into graphic storytelling, with a naturalistic illustrative style that is a pitch-perfect match for Bamford's comic timing, making Hogbook and Lazer Eyes a beautifully illustrated love story, told by some incredibly charming pugs.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Compulsive Comics collects the very best of Eric Haven's singular brand of inverted-comic-book-consciousness and genre-bending short stories. 'The Glacier' is about a lone scientist making a startling discovery. The volume's most controversial story, 'I Killed Dan Clowes,' is an epic conflation of autobio and fantasy. While driving around Oakland, ruminating on the history of underground comics in the Bay Area, the main character fatally hits acclaimed graphic novelist Daniel Clowes, and the absurdity only escalates from there.…
