Another month begins, another list of graphic novels and comics we’d like to suggest you take a look at coming at you over the next couple of months… here’s what we’re looking forward to:
JANUARY 2012
Womanthology anthology – much anticipated, much discussed.
Steve Canyon Volume 1 – Caniff at his height!
Jason’s delayed prequel to The Last Muskateer – Athos In America.
Joost Swarte – genius… Is That All There Is?
A fantastic return to form for Daredevil – Mark Waid, Marcos Martin, Paulo Rivera’s first six issues in hardcover (review of issue 1-3 here).
Ellen Lindner’s Undertow back in print.
Moebius and Jodorowsky’s Madwoman of the Sacred Heart.
And Mysterious Traveller – the third volume of the Steve Ditko Archives.
Preacher Hardcover Volume 6,
Big Mother #2 from Nobrow – Sam Vanallemeersch’s A3 monograph book
… and Coltrane from Cape rounding us out for the month.
FEBRUARY 2012
Finally! Finally! Hopefully…. Morrison and Quitely’s Flex Mentallo re-released.
Early Warren Ellis Stormwatch re-released in HC.
First Second release Faith Erin Hicks’ Friends With Boys – webcomic here.
Mary Talbot’s first Graphic Novel, alongside husband Bryan for what looks like a classic debut: Dotter Of Her Father’s Eyes.
And after a debut, here’s a finale. A very sad finale, as this is the last work of Harvey Pekars we’ll ever be lucky enough to see. The master of autobiog is back in Cleveland.
And there’s a new book from Joe Sacco – Journalism. Three must buys I reckon.
King City Comics – by the brilliant Brandon Graham, finally gets collected.
Old buddy, ex-Nostalgia & Comics alumni Ben McCool’s PIGS gets a first collection (biased – absolutely!).
SelfMadeHero release the latest Edginton/Culbard adaptation – Princess Of Mars.
Gloriana – latest from Kevin Huizenga.
Dick Turpin and the Crimson Plague from Time Bomb comics – Britains most famous highwayman comes up against vampires!
Whilst Nobrow’s Cramond Island has Edinburgh native Joe all excited!
Hector Umbra – Out from Blank Slate through previews in February – and previewed here.
Ampney Circus – another Ian Edginton book – from 2000AD this time, and it sounds bloody great!
Kolor Klimax showcases the best of alternative Scandanavian cartooning talent.
Okay, that’s it for this month – what looks good to you coming to the shelves?
