GEORGIE STORY OF MAN HIS DOG & PIN HC

(W) R. O. Blechman (A) R. O. Blechman (CA) R. O. Blechman

The joyful arrival of a longed-for baby is followed by overwhelming losses but a loyal dog makes happiness possible again. This moving and profound graphic novel by R. O. Blechman treats its solemn subject with humor, simplicity, and warm humanity. Maurice Sendak characterized the tale as "fierce, passionate little pictures that pack a punch only Blechman seems capable of delivering," and Jules Feiffer observed that "Long-time fans are well aware of Blechman's elegant cartoon-poetry, but in , his quiet, measured pace moves the reader onto darker terrain, presented in a sweet and tragic man-and-dog story that calls for a second reading, and perhaps, more."

In this magnificently illustrated dreamscape of brutality and eroticism, a mysterious female presence called Rumour arises to challenge super-commando Brother Bones in a deadly war between the sexes. offers a compelling blend of science-fiction allegory and fantasy adventure. Author Jamie Delano's unique vision of a strange, immersive world is perfectly complemented by John Higgins's stunning illustrations.
