Comic books September 2007

1st printing. Story and art by Mark Tatulli. Drawn in the age-old style of pantomime strips, LIÓ offers a decidedly new and edgy twist to the wordless comic format. Employing a unique drawing style influenced by cartooning greats Gahan Wilson, Charles Addams, and 19th-century satirist A. J. Volck, Mark Tatulli's cartoon is a mind-bendingly humorous and astute journey into the darkly detailed world of young Lió - where a spit wad can put a school bus out of commission faster than a spider can hamper the efforts of the U.S. Postal Service! Softcover (Horizontal Format), 8 1/2-in. x 9-in., 128 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $12.95.
