About this title

Synopsis

After creating the first independent graphic novel in Italy, the award-winning illustrator reinvents the genre comic.

The second of three volumes collecting Guido Buzzelli's stories in English for the first time, this volume showcases two science fiction tales that turn the canon upside down, penetrating myth and tearing it apart. HP is a hallucinatory, Lovecraftian locomotive, an acrid parody of Italian westerns; while the alchemical retro-future of Morganna performs an autopsy of modern life's horrors.

These fantastic and grotesque stories demonstrate why Buzzelli was called "the Goya of comics". One of Europe's most praised comics auteurs, Buzzelli Collected Works are the perfect introduction to his masterful skill and subversive art.

In 1973 he received the Yellow Kid Award as best illustrator and author in Italy, and in 1979 won the Crayon d'Or in France.
