A lost, all-ages, classic graphic novel - by the creator of Tintin!
Created by Hergé when he was drawing the first few Tintin comics, and first serialized in black and white in 1934, this is the first publication of his lighthearted adventure Peppy in the Wild West - and the only English translation since 1969. When his hat business fails, the bear Peppy heads to the Old West to start a new life, accompanied by his sweet wife, Virginny, and his faithful steed, Bluebell. They find a patch of grass somewhere in California, where Peppy's hats start a craze among the local Rabbit-Ears tribe. What follows is a rollicking cascade of one thing after another: not one, but two kidnappings, a river full of gold, a bulldog outlaw, and a side trip to Santa Barbara! Full-color illustrations throughout.

In the late 1920s, Melvin Z. Woodworth is an author with writer's block and a mystery to solve. He takes a vacation to the Swiss Alps to try and kill two birds with one stone - and do some excellent hiking and skiing while he's at it. But the little village, so long slumbering on the wrong side of the Industrial Revolution, is threatened by a force of nature - and, of course, contains secrets of its own. Cosey's masterful graphic novel is presented here in full-color English translation for the first time: an ode to nature, culture, mythology, and a simpler - yet riskier - time.

Emilico is just one of many "Living Dolls" serving in the Shadows House, residents of which are pitch black from head to toe and constantly leak soot that stains the house black. Each "Shadow" is partnered with a Doll, which strangely resembles the other. As a Living Doll, Emilico must keep the house sparkling clean as well as act as the face for her master, Kate. In turn, Kate supports Emilico and treats her as her confidant.
As far as either of them can remember, this has always been the way their world works. However, the bond between a Shadow and a Doll isn't quite clear. Administrators watch over the young pairs from the higher levels of the mansion and judge them - but for what purpose?

1830, Black Africa, Atar Gull, a beautiful slave is loaded onto the boat of Captain Benoît, to be sold in the Antilles. His price is high: the son of a king, an athlete, a warrior... His story takes us from the holds of a slave ship to Jamaica, from slave markets to the heart of a plantation; his fate will be a tragic one...
Fabien Nury and Brunö have created an incredible, flamboyant fresco, a staggering adventure of a thousand dramatic turns, a superb album of 88 pages which will continue to haunt you long after you have closed it.

It is clear from the first panel that Loisel has no interest in giving us a white-washed narrative: 'London... cold, hunger and misery merge to set the scene...' It's a Dickensian nightmare. The houses are cramped, the streets are full of cynical, selfish people and all is awash in the ordure of poverty. While it's clear that they all suffer together, there is precious little sense of community. The Londoners prey upon each other like rats in a cobble-stoned coffin. The single factor connecting the adult world and that of the young is a gnawing hunger to escape. So, we come to Peter, a ragged child holding forth to a group of orphans in a tiny yard. When we first meet him, his only magic lies in his words, transporting the children with marvelous stories of far away places and warming their hearts with the 'words of tenderness' he claims his mother whispers to him. (That damned harpy!) His struggle to maintain innocence in a tawdry world is heart-breaking, and renders the book firmly in the arena of adult reading. Loisel does an excellent job of portraying the darkness and terror of the adult world from a prepubescent perspective, in imagery, language and inference - laying down the psychological tracks that lead to Peter's perpetual childhood in Neverland. This is not a world for children.
Although he chooses to root the story in reality, the bulk of the adventure takes place in Neverland - though it's not actually named in the book. If there is one thing that Peter Pan represents, it's the joy of unfettered imagination, and Neverland fits him like a glove. Loisel's artwork is of the very highest quality, but the flames of his creativity burn brightest in Neverland. The island is brought vividly to life, in all its contradictions: blending Greek mythology, fairy tale, stories of the blood-red waves and the wild west. The character design is fabulous throughout: from Hook's haggard and bestubbled face to the Peter's gap-toothed grin, while the Lost Boys have never looked wilder. The pirates' attempts to steal the fairy treasure (and latterly exact revenge on poor Peter) is perhaps the one weak point of the story. It suffers from the same malaise as Barrie's original, with outlandish ploys and schoolboy tactics. That said, Hook is a formidable bully when roused, representing as he does all Adults in his grasping nature and cruel injustices. If this is a 'children's' story, then it's the kind they tell each other when there are no grown-ups around: full of brutality and bloody excess.
This is one of those rare books that gives you more and more each time you read it, whether it's in the spectacular detail of the artwork, fresh insights to story, theme or meaning. The artwork is sumptuous, the drama intense and the emotional punches are near-crippling. How many comics delve into gnaw-knuckle nastiness one minute and move you to tears the next? Precious blooming few, and that's a fact!
