We All Die Alone, the long-awaited Fantagraphics Books collection of work from Mark Newgarden, is covered in black velvet, or something that feels like it if there's some sort of technical array of fun to touch materials that include black velvet of which I'm unaware. In other words: a furry trade paperback, and a perfect way to call attention to Newgarden's place in comics as king of the precise touch. We can further be thankful this wasn't first applied to something from Fantagraphics' Eros line.
