Volume 3 - 1st printing. "1967-1968!"

Story and art by Doug Wright.

Doug Wright's masterful newspaper strip returns to suburban life in the late 1960s, where not even the countercultural tumult of the times could ruin domestic bliss or distract from sibling rivalry. Things are still fun, innocent, and wholesome in the suburbs: there's road hockey in the streets, boys have their friends over for sleepovers, and kids play freely on their own outside, with little or no parental supervision.

Wright's stellar draftsmanship, fond eye for detail, and brilliant sense of comic timing shines throughout this volume of the Nipper series.

Softcover, (Horizontal Format) 6-in. x 8-in., 112 pages, full color.

Volume 3 - 1st printing. "Book 3: City of Light!" Collects Berlin (1996) #17-22.

Story and art by Jason Lutes.

The third and final act of Jason Lutes' historical fiction about the Weimar Republic begins with Hitler arriving in Berlin. With the National Socialist party now controlling Parliament, the citizenry becomes even more divided. Lutes steps back from the larger political upheaval, using the intertwining lives of a small group of German citizens to zero in on the rise of fascism and how swiftly it can replace democracy. The idle rich, the naive bourgeoisie, and the struggling lower classes: all seek meaning in the warring political factions dividing their nation.

Softcover, 176 pages, B&W. Mature Readers Cover price $24.95.

Volume 3 - 1st printing.

Drawn & Quarterly Showcase Book Three presents three remarkable tales. Genevieve Elverum's "We're Wolf" is composed of a trilogy of adult fables about happiness, sadness and companionship drawn in a graceful, languid style. Kramer's Ergot editor Sammy Harkham's "Somersaulting," a tale of two friends, chronicling the languid pace of summer as well as the gradual discovery of love and sex in the suburbs. After two such dreamy stories, Matt Broersma rounds out the book with the two-part "The Mummy," a charming and funny romp through a mythical mid-20th-century European locale, featuring tongue-in-cheek romance, intrigue and ghosts. Book Four features three North American cartoonists, Dan Zettwoch ("The Ghost of Dragon Canoe") of St. Louis, Gabrielle Bell (When I'm Old) of Brooklyn, and Martin Cendreda (Dang!) of Los Angeles. Zettwoch and Bell have both contributed to the award-winning anthology Kramer's Ergot. Cendreda is a frequent contributor to Giant Robot magazine.

Volume 3 - 1st printing. "Tove Jannson: Book 3 of 6!" Story and art by Tove Jannson.

This third volume returns to Moominvalley, where its beloved inhabitants get tangled up in five new stories. Moomin falls in love with a damsel in distress, an unseasonably warm spell turns the valley into a tropical rain forest, and a flying saucer crashes into Moominmamma's garden.

Moomin and Moominmamma do their level best to avoid the whole mess but, of course, get drawn into the muddle. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 12-in., 108 pages, B&W. Cover price $19.95.
