About this title

Synopsis

"Reports of print's demise have been greatly exaggerated, as proven by Nobrow's alluring, jewel-like publications, truly special books to treasure and caress."Paul Gravett, author ofGraphic Novels: Stories to Change Your Life

This will be an entirely new incarnation of our biannual journal as we double the number of pages to include comics and graphic short stories. At 120 pages it not only presents the very best of illustration talent out there, but also devotes half of its pages to the world of comics, where we showcase talent from the established as well as the new, all the while keeping true to our Nobrow spot color aesthetic.

The theme of this issue The Double explores the sinister concept of the doppelganger, one that has appeared in literature and mythology since our earliest written records. From Greek and Norse mythology to Percy Bysshe Shelley, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, John Donne, and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the idea has held the human imagination, fascinating and terrifying us in equal measure. Now we turn it over to sixty illustrators and graphic storytellers to interpret as they wish, each taking on one double page spread.

Includes illustrations from: Andrea Kalfas, Katja Spitzer, Gwenola Carrere, Viviane Swartz, Golden Cosmos, Chuck Groenink, and many more.

Includes comics from: Kevin Huizenga, John Martz, Gemma Correll, Matthew Forsythe, Michael DeForge, Roman Muradov, Scott MacDonald, Malachi Ward, Luc Melanson, Ana Albero, and many others. With a cover by award-winning cartoonist and illustrator Tom Gauld.

Shipping Terms

Orders usually posted within 2 business days. All books are sent in bubble wrap within a secure cardboard mailer. The weight indicated on some listings is the estimated packed weight rounded up for postal purposes.

For orders within the United Kingdom most items will be posted by Royal Mail Tracked; with more expensive items Tracked and Signed. The tracking number will be updated on the AbeBooks order system. I will not generally contact you for extra postage, unless noted in listing.

Overseas orders are sent by Airmail, 'International Tracked'. I will notify you the tracking number by email; which can then be used to control your delivery with your local deliverer. If the shipment is heavier than average, I may contact you for extra postage, but this is very unusual.

Because of recent changes, I cannot post parcels over approximately 120 euros in value to the European Union.
