1st printing. In the post-industrial wasteland of Cleveland in the 1990s, artist Clay Parker created a massive body of fliers and comix unseen for decades. His work was infused with sex, drugs, booze, and a churning intensity; his black and white grotesques writhed and groped on the page. He created flier artwork for all the luminaries of the 90s gunk-punk underground with an emphasis on elaborate lettering and eye-gouging imagery. He drew prolifically and obsessively for a decade, then fell out of the public eye.UNTIL NOW.UP FOR THREE DAYS: THE ART OF CLAY PARKER collects hundreds of show fliers, comics, and drawings by an unknown master of black and white illustration. Part anthropological study, part cautionary tale, UP FOR THREE DAYS is the first-ever collection of this overlooked rock n roll smut maestro. Featuring an introduction by Cleveland comics stalwart Jake Kelly and extended commentary by artist Clay Parker, UP FOR THREE DAYS is a jaw-dropping, laugh- filled, gross-out marathon through Parkers jagged black and white world. ADULTS ONLY. A Pave the Ocean Press / Stone Church Press Production. Softcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 192 pages, B&W. Mature Readers Cover price $35.00.

Story and art by Richard Sala.

The 1997 magnum opus of the late Richard Sala, master of graphic noir, has been out of print for years and is now available in hardcover for the very first time.

Sala weaves the gothic cartooning traditions of Edward Gorey and Charles Addams with a melodramatic murder mystery involving astrology, ghouls, academia, and outsider art. Part noir, part horror, and part comedy, this labyrinthine tale of intrigue follows an unemployed writer named Broom who becomes ensnared unwittingly in a complex plot involving mysterious outsider artist Emile Jarnac, the shadowy machinations of the Ghoul Appreciation Society Headquarters (GASH), and the enigmatic Mr. Ixnay.

Sala's deadpan delivery makes this ingeniously layered narrative a roller-coaster ride of darkly pure comic suspense. Sala's drawing style also reveals the influence of everything from Hollywood monster movies and Dick Tracy to German expressionism and Grimm's fairy tales. It's a style that's perfectly suited to the narrative, constantly flirting with Sala's fascination for the grotesque and lending palpable tension to the gruesome riddle of The Chuckling Whatsit.
