1st printing. Story and art by by Jason. An anthology of masterful shorts from the creator of "I Killed Adolf Hitler." This multifaceted anthology collects Jason's early 1990's work, including his remarkable calling card, the novella-length thriller "Pocket Full of Rain," which has never before been published in English. Like a number of his initial stories, "Pocket" is drawn with realistic human beings instead of blank-faced animal characters, a true revelation for Jason's fans. This book showcases three distinct styles - his earliest "realistic" drawing style, used to unsettling effect in some particularly creepy stories; an intermediate "bighead" cartoony style that still features humans, used for both humor and drama; and the "funny-animal" style he's now best known for. All this, plus much more, including a color gallery and God cheating at Trivial Pursuit. Softcover, 144 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $19.99.
