ISBN: 9781466347809 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Grant Morrison's THE INVISIBLES has been hailed as an ambitious comics masterpiece, the key to Morrison's entire body of work, and the inspiration for THE MATRIX. But it's also frequently written off as incomprehensible. Using a conversational, accessible style, Patrick Meaney (director of GRANT MORRISON: TALKING WITH GODS) opens up THE INVISIBLES through in-depth analysis that makes sense of the series's complicated ideas, fractured chronology, and delirious blend of fiction and reality. Meaney also explores how the series's fictional conspiracy theories fare in the wake of 9/11 and the War...

Grant Morrison: The Early Years
ISBN: 9781466343351 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Grant Morrison redefined comics in the 1980s and early '90s, from his trailblazing creation of ZENITH, through his metatextual innovations in ANIMAL MAN, to his Dadaist super-heroes in DOOM PATROL. Along the way, he also addressed Batman with his multi-layered ARKHAM ASYLUM and his literary "Gothic" storyline.

In this short book, Dr. Julian Darius explores the event from start to finish, including its place in the history of super-hero comics. From Sequart Organization. More info at http: //sequart.org

Revisionism, Radical Experimentation, and Dystopia in Keith Giffen's Legion of Super-Heroes
ISBN: 9781481038553 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. No other run divides Legion of Super-Hero fans like Keith Giffen's. To detractors, it dismantled everything good about the series. In this short book, Dr. Julian Darius argues that Giffen's run offered an ambitious and unprecedented response to the growing maturity of super-hero comics - one that, far from trashing Legion history, actually respected it.
