NOTE: Manufacturer's non-permanent "peel-off" retail sticker on front cover may or may not still be present. The Magazine of Comics News and Criticism. Art speaks louder than words when the Journal interviews two cartoonists who have had success with "silence." Norwegian Jason, who populates comics such as Hey, Wait..., The Left Bank Gang and I Killed Adolf Hitler with deadpan anthropomorphic animals, muses on the thin line between tragedy and laughter and why B-movie creations continue to resonate with the 21st century public. Lio comic-strip cartoonist Mark Tatulli talks to the Journal about bringing kids and ghouls together on the Funny Pages in Lio, one of the most innovative and entertaining comics strips in recent decades. Plus: Christmas cards from Chris Ware, Dan Clowes, the Hernandez Brothers, Seth, Bill Griffith, Peter Bagge and others. And: a color comics gallery goes back to the early days of one of the world's longest-running comic strips: Billy DeBeck's Snuffy Smith precursor, Take Barney Google, F'rinstance, spanning 1919 to 1921. Cover by Jason. 208 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $11.99.
