Interiorae GN (2005-2010 Fantagraphics) comic books 1990 or later

Volume 1 - 1st printing. Story and art by Gabriella Giandelli. A high-rise apartment building in an unnamed European city. Its inhabitants come and go, meet each other, talk, dream, regret, hope and, in short, live. A ghostly, shape-shifting anthropomorphic white rabbit roams from apartment to apartment, surveying and keeping track of all this humanity, and at the end of every night, he floats down to the basement where he delivers his report to the "great dark one." Lushly delineated in pencilled sepia halftones, this debut "Ignatz", by Gabriella Giandelli, offers a hauntingly unique vision and a tantalizingly open-ended beginning to an ongoing series. Softcover (Saddle-Stitched/Stapled), 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 32 pages, B&W. Mature Readers

Volume 2 - 1st printing. Story and art by Gabriella Giandelli. There's a few days left until Christmas, and the characters from the apartment complex introduced in the first issue continue to casually cross and meet, as the ghostly rabbit follows and observes them, reporting back to his shadowy master in the basement. Chiara goes to work and Marco spies on her with his binoculars. Nico plays at home, while his mother, Giulia, chats and smokes with her friends. Lorenzo steals his mother's earrings to buy some dope and get high. The children of the ghost family play in the garden. Meanwhile, Angela, the old woman, is excited about her new project: sending Irina to the library to pick up some books about hallucinatory mushrooms and pejote. She repeatedly phones her nephew, a research worker living and working in the USA. She has plans involving the rabbit and his master. Try your best to guide these hallucinations and intertwining storylines in this novel of bizarre circumstance! Softcover (Saddle-Stitched/Stapled), 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 32 pages, B&W. Mature Readers
