ALBERTO BRECCIAS DRACULA HC
(W) ALBERTO BRECCIA (A) ALBERTO BRECCIA
In this wordless, full-color collection of satiric short comics stories, ALBERTO BRECCIA chronicles the waning days of the most famous vampire of them all. Literally defanged, the protagonist's glory days are long behind him and corrupt Government officials are now draining the life out of the population far more than one creature of the night ever could. This, Fantagraphics' first entry in the ALBERTO BRECCIA Library, also includes a sketchbook showing the artist's process.
MORT CINDER HC
(W) Hector German Oesterheld (A) ALBERTO BRECCIA (CA) ALBERTO BRECCIA
The great ALBERTO BRECCIA, in collaboration with the Argentine writer Hector German Oesterheld (The Eternaut,) present Mort Cinder, a horror story with political overtones that follows the wanderings through time of a man who rises from the grave each time he is killed, bearing witness to the darkest sides of humanity. American comics creators such as Frank Miller (300, Sin City) and Mike Mignola (Hellboy) owe Breccia a great debt; these horror-adventure tales are as thrilling, dread-inducing, and accessible as when they were created a half a century ago.
PERRAMUS THE CITY AND OBLIVION HC
(W) Juan Sasturain (A) ALBERTO BRECCIA
Fantagraphics presents ALBERTO BRECCIA's revolutionary (literally) graphic novel for the first time in English. Perramus follows a political dissident on the run from the skull-faced Death Squad as he encounters a variety of eccentric characters including a director of imaginary films, a troupe of guerilla circus folk, a tin-pot dictator, and Ronald Reagan... This highly anticipated collection was created while Argentina's military dictatorship was still in power and is a cartooning tour de force, with a revolutionary message that remains vital to this day.
