1st printing. Written by Marieke Nijkamp. Art and cover by Sylvia Bi. Twelve-year-old Vale is guildless, and there are two things the guildless of Siannerra fear most of all. First, an injury or illness that prevents them from working. And second, losing their homes. When Vales Nonno breaks his ankle and is unable to work, Vale is afraid their family will soon be evicted. How will Vale be able to support their family with the meager coins the guildless make working at the docks? Luckily for Vale, there is a new maestro in town. Maestro Giuseppi and his daughter, Stella, dont care that Vale is guildless. In fact, they dont care about the rules of the guilds at all. They are here to build Siannerras first astronomical clock, and they arent asking for the guilds permission. Better yet, Giuseppi wants Vale to be his apprentice! Could this be the answer to all Vales dreams? Or the start of all their problems? After all, the city doesnt take breaking the rules lightly. With nuanced and instantly loveable characters and a fully realized, vibrantly illustrated setting, bestselling author Marieke Nijkamp and breakout illustrator Sylvie Bi show once again how anyone—no matter their age—can change their world. An excellent choice for fans of the Lightfall and Wingbearer series. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 288 pages, full color. Cover price $15.99.

Volume 1 - 1st printing. Story and art by Tokunami Seiichiro. "Papa, mama, please dont be surprised. A year ago, my organs were replaced with gears and springs…" Tadashi is the lone son of a watchmaker. Clocks are his only friends. Ever since a nightmarish bicycle accident, he fears going to school. So, his parents hire him a special tutor—not a man, but a mustachioed pocket watch. He, too, fails to improve Tadashi's grades, though he gifts him a magical wristwatch capable of transporting its wearer to a frighteningly surreal land of clock people. As the automatons begin to turn on their makers, Tadashi decides that its best to abandon his uneasy humanity and bestow his soul to the ticktocks. Originally published in 1962, Tokunami Seiichiro's HUMAN CLOCK has no peer or parallel in manga history. Years before it was acceptable to be abstract and oneiric in Japanese comics, years before it was common to cartoon in an artistic manner that privileged form over function, Tokunami was expressionistically slashing through panels in a Kafka-esque fever dream of jagged and melting imagery. Including an equally weird second story, THE CATS MOURNING CLOTHES, and an essay by subculturalist Udagawa Takeo, HUMAN CLOCK is the ninth volume of SMUDGE, a line of vintage horror, occult, and dark fantasy manga curated and translated by award-winning historian Ryan Holmberg and published by Living the Line.
