Enjoy the acclaimed graphic novel as an ART BOOK! Each page of this classic story is reproduced from the original art--while appearing to be in black and white, the art is scanned IN COLOR, capturing all the nuances (blue pencil, white out, etc) and quirks that make original art unique! DAVID MAZZUCCHELLI''S DAREDEVIL BORN AGAIN was released in the much lauded Artist''s Edition format in 2012. It soon became the best-selling Artist''s Edition of all-time and was universally acclaimed. In 2013 the book received the prestigious Eisner Award for Best Archival Project--Comic Books, as well as a Harvey Award the same year. It soon sold out and has been the single most requested AE book to date for IDW to reissue. So it is only fitting that IDW launch its new MARVEL series of Artisan books with this award-winning classic! Just as the original release, DAVID MAZZUCCHELLI''S DAREDEVIL BORN AGAIN ARTISAN EDITION features the same scans--entirely from the original art--each painstakingly done by David Mazzucchelli himself to ensure the finest quality possible. If ever a book deserved to be in this format it is Daredevil Born Again. Frank Miller, at the peak of his powers, crafted a story that remains--in an extraordinary career--one of his finest pieces of writing. And David Mazzucchelli does a stellar tour de force job as his collaborator, providing a nuanced and nearly pitch-perfect turn as artist. If there is any book deserving to be re-read and rediscovered... this is the one!

Improvvisamente tutto nella vita di Matt Murdock comincia a complicarsi. Come se non bastasse lo stato che gli contesta tasse non pagate e la banca che dice di non ha ricevuto i soldi del mutuo, ora qualcuno lo accusa anche di aver corrotto un testimone. È l’inizio di un viaggio nella disperazione che porta Matt sull’orlo della follia e a un passo dalla morte. Un’odissea causata da Kingpin, l’implacabile signore del crimine che ha scoperto l’identità di chi si nasconde dietro la maschera di Devil! La più famosa e importante saga della storia di Devil, un capolavoro a fumetti che ha ridefinito il mito dell’uomo senza paura scritto e disegnato da Frank Miller e David Mazzucchelli!

"Each page has been personally scanned by David Mazzucchelli from his own original art at the same size he drew it, and in color (to insure the best possible reproduction). While appearing to be in black and white, each page was scanned in color to mimic as closely as possible the experience of viewing the actual original art - for instance, corrections, blue pencils, paste-overs, all the little nuances that make original art unique. Each page is printed the same size as drawn, and the paper selected is as close as possible to the original art board."--Publisher description.

The triumphant return of one of comics’ greatest talents, with an engrossing story of one man’s search for love, meaning, sanity, and perfect architectural proportions. An epic story long awaited, and well worth the wait. Meet Asterios Polyp: middle-aged, meagerly successful architect and teacher, aesthete and womanizer, whose life is wholly upended when his New York City apartment goes up in flames. In a tenacious daze, he leaves the city and relocates to a small town in the American heartland. But what is this “escape” really about? As the story unfolds, moving between the present and the past, we begin to understand this confounding yet fascinating character, and how he’s gotten to where he is. And isn’t. And we meet Hana: a sweet, smart, first-generation Japanese American artist with whom he had made a blissful life. But now she’s gone. Did Asterios do something to drive her away? What has happened to her? Is she even alive? All the questions will be answered, eventually. In the meantime, we are enthralled by Mazzucchelli’s extraordinarily imagined world of brilliantly conceived eccentrics, sharply observed social mores, and deftly depicted asides on everything from design theory to the nature of human perception. Asterios Polyp is David Mazzucchelli’s masterpiece: a great American graphic novel.

Tegneserie - graphic novel med New York som den labyrintiske baggrund for krimiforfatteren Quinns efterforskning af en gådefuld og absurd sag om en far, der stræber sin søn efter livet

"Big Man" mette in scena l''arrivo di un gigante in una comunità rurale americana. Questo evento scatena pulsioni nascoste e paure ancestrali seppellite sotto un velo di apparente normalità. I fantasmi della violenza bruciano alimentati da diffidenza e paura della diversità scatenando una caccia all''uomo spietata quanto ingiustificata. Un ritratto tenero e vibrante degno della migliore letteratura Americana. Tracciato con segno genial e innovatore e raccontato con il tono pacato di una favola moderna.
