1st printing. "The Revival!" and "Hundreds of Feet Below Daylight!" Story and art by James Sturm. Before his breakthrough book, The Golem's Mighty Swing, James Sturm produced two bold, remarkable short novellas set in different periods on the American frontier. The first story, "The Revival," is a devastating examination of religious fundamentalism at the turn of the 19th century. This is followed by "Hundreds of Feet Below Daylight," a story of voracious greed set against the backdrop of an Idaho mining town built on the blood of massacred Chinese. Both novellas are collected together for the first time in this eighty page deluxe comic book. Softcover (Saddle-Stitched/Stapled), 80 pages, B&W. Cover price $9.95.
