About This Item
Seattle: Fantagraphics Books. Near Fine. 2011. First Edition. Softcover. [very very VERY slight bumping to corners of front cover, otherwise as new]. Trade PB (color reproductions) This book "presents 176 fully restored full-sized classics, arranged chronologically to follow the evolutionary trends resulting from the industry's monthly battle for newsstand attention. [The book] also includes extensive historical commentary [on each individual cover] by editor/designer Greg Sadowski." ("Fully restored," in this context, translates to being digitally cleaned up and color-enhanced to look far better than they did on the original comics. Don't get me wrong, they look gorgeous -- but also, in a weird way, a little TOO gorgeous.) ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this moderately heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.**** .
