Volume 1 - 1st printing. "1931-1933!" Clover Press and The Library of American Comics prove that size does matter as we fulfill fans' long-standing requests to produce new editions of the first six volumes of Chester Gould's The Complete Dick Tracy. This is no simple reprinting - these volumes have been reformatted to be the same larger size as Volumes 7 through 29. In this premiere offering, we return again to those hardscrabble days of 1931, when tragedy in the Trueheart family puts young Dick Tracy on the police force and pits him against mobster "Big Boy," Larceny Lu, the counterfeiter Alec Penn, the nefarious "Stooge" Viller, and Steve the Tramp! As an added bonus, the first thirty-four Tracy Sunday pages, with stories separate from the daily continuity, have been rescanned to make them sharper and cleaner than their original reprinting. There's never been a better time than now to get reacquainted with Chester Gould's crime-busting plainclothesman, with the publication of the new bigger edition of The Complete Dick Tracy Volume 1!

Volume 2 - 1st printing. "1933-1935!" It's all about family in the Complete Dick Tracy Volume 2, as Clover Press and The Library of American Comics bring this early entry into the series' standardized format. That means larger pages in a book that looks great on the shelf with its companions. Between the covers, the spotlight's on Junior Tracy as he and his biological father cross paths with the notorious "Stooge" Viller and his sister, Maxine. Then "Big Boy" leaves Junior hospitalized before "Confidence" Dolan locks the boy in the can. Dick Tracy's subsequent encounter with secret operative J. Scotland Bumpsted puts the evil Larceny Lu on the run to California. There she meets Junior's long-lost mother, who gives Junior a Scotty pup named Oscar and Tracy a way to bring villainous Boris Arson to justice. Chester Gould's high-octane stories set pulses raising and hearts beating faster in the reformatted, super-sized, all-action The Complete Dick Tracy Volume 2!

Clover Press and The Library of American Comics are re-presenting Chester Goulds earliest Dick Tracy stories in the larger format used throughout most books in the series, so Tracys battles against gangsters look bigger and better than ever. The action hits closer to home when the Tracy familys acquaintance, Toby Townley, learns that justice is blind after the small grift she runs makes her realize that prison stripes are the new black. Then Dick Tracy tries an experiment in reform, transforming hardened criminal Lips Manlis into straight-arrow Bob Honor – but is it true theres no Honor among thieves?

Later, Tracy and Pat Patton come to grips – and blows! – with The Blank, whose look predates The Question, whose name predates The Shining, and whose unmasked face harkens back to Lon Chaney as Quasimodo! Sandwiched between those two tales, Tracy is caught in a web of intrigue along with three amoral young girls, millionaire wastrel Johnny Mintworth and his mother, plus the powerful mobs fronted by Collie Vinsso and Danny Supeena.

An encounter with small-time dognapper puts Tracy on the trail of a gang of fur thieves, and then hardened criminal Stooge Viller softens up, thanks to his young daughter, but not before he drops Dick Tracy into a dastardly death trap! The detective, meanwhile, crosses paths with an abandoned infant and an amnesiac chanteuse and sees that crime is for couples when the diminutive Jerome and his hulking bride, Mamma, sew death and destruction from city streets to the western plains, while the suave mastermind Krome decides to part ways with his traitorous girlfriend by permanently parting her hair!

1st printing. Collects Complete Little Nemo: 1905-1909 HC (2019 Taschen) By Winsor McCay and Complete Little Nemo: 1910-1927 HC (2019 Taschen) By Winsor McCay.
Written by Alexander Braun and Winsor McCay. Art and cover by Winsor McCay.
Meet Little Nemo, a diminutive hero of comic narrative, but one of the greatest dream voyagers of the 20th century. The master creation of Winsor McCay (1869-1934), restless sleeper Nemo inspired generations of artists with his weekly adventures from bed to Slumberland, a realm of colorful companions, psychedelic scenery, and thrilling escapades.
Nemo's creator Winsor McCay was a founding figure in the modern American entertainment industry, above all with his revolutionary comics, which set standards for panel layout and storytelling technique, timing and pacing, and architectural and other detail that left an inestimable influence on subsequent artists, including Robert Crumb and Federico Fellini.
TASCHEN's sumptuous Winsor McCay - The Complete Little Nemo collects, in full, glorious color, all 549 episodes of Little Nemo. In the illustrated essay, art historian and comics expert Alexander Braun places Winsor McCay's life and work within the cultural history of the U.S. media and entertainment industry, and explores the immense art historical value of McCay's dream narrative. At once an adventure story, visual delight, and piece of cultural history, this publication is a tremendous monument to one of the most innovative pioneers-and one of the most intrepid explorers-of comic history.

1st printing. Story and art by G. B. Trudeau. As Trump returns to the ballot in 2024, this collection of Doonesbury Sunday comics about the former (and possibly future) president will hit just ahead of one of the most significant election cycles in decades. This volume also features the Doonesbury regulars, with Alex and Toggle raising three free-range kids and Mike happily wallowing in grandpahood. Mr. Covid retires, proud to know his wilier, more adaptive descendants will keep taking the fight to the unvaxxed. Joanie thinks Rick's latest story is the best thing he's ever written: too bad it was actually authored by ChatGPT. Roland and Rascal, wading through Ukrainian snowdrifts, blunder into a Meta crack-up. Not even fantasy is making sense, but in Day One Dictator, G.B. Trudeau gives it his best shot yet. Softcover, 8-in. x 9-in., 128 pages, full color. Cover price $19.99.
