Your Black Friday Shopping List Adds

Last Friday we posted this site's Black Friday Shopping Guide. At the end of the post, we asked for suggestions of anything good we might have missed. Here are your responses.


An Illustrated Life, Danny Gregory
A book about life as lived through sketching and sketchbooks, including contributions from R. Crumb and Chris Ware.



The Rabbi's Cat Series, Joann Sfar
My mom hasn't read these, but Douglas Wolk's mother sure liked 'em.


The Book Of Leviathan, Peter Blegvad
Speaking of Wolk, the longtime comics reviewer and critic says this is his go-to book in terms of having given it to a lot of folks at one time or another. There's a new paperback version out.


Ditko, Etc., Steve Ditko
The great mainstream comics artist's first new book in years. I didn't even know this was out yet.


The Picture Of Dorian Gray, Roy Thomas and Sebastian Fiumara
One of the quieter efforts in Marvel's broad move onto bookstore shelves; the collection of a six-issue mini-series begun late last year.


A Print From Todd Klein
The above -- obscured to the image can't be knocked off for piracy purposes, I'm guessing -- is "Comic Book Dreams," the third of three reasonably recent prints done by letterer Todd Klein. This time the collaborator is Alex Ross; previous collaborators on prints that will have new editions available were Neil Gaiman and Alan Moore.

These will be sorted into the main 2008 post ASAP.

thanks to Kelly Kilmer, Douglas Wolk, John Vest and John Burgess
