About this Item

Blankets by Craig Thompson (Montreal, Drawn & Quarterly, 2015) is the First Drawn & Quarterly Edition, with a full number line to 1 indicating a First Printing. The colophon notes the book's original publication year as 2003 but confirms this volume as the 2015 D&Q hardcover-and-paperback first issue. Beautifully produced in large-format softcover with French flaps, decorative patterned endpapers, and premium matte paper, this edition showcases Thompson's award-winning graphic memoir with exceptional clarity. The exterior shows only trivial handling evidence including a faint scratch to the lower front panel and a mild, nearly imperceptible spine crease, while the binding remains tight and the interior pages are exceptionally clean, bright, and unmarked. A notably well-preserved copy of this influential literary graphic novel. Condition: Near Fine, based on minimal exterior wear and an outstanding, pristine interior. Craig Thompson (born 1975) is a celebrated American graphic novelist known for his emotionally resonant storytelling and intricate pen-and-ink illustration. His breakthrough memoir Blankets earned multiple Eisner, Harvey, and Ignatz Awards and remains one of the most influential graphic novels of the 21st century. Thompson has continued to expand the medium with ambitious works such as Habibi, Carnet de Voyage, and Space Dumplins, solidifying his reputation as one of the defining voices in contemporary comics.
