Jukka Lehtonen: Putileon Punaparte – Yllätysten kevätretki
Venäläinen ruletti pyörii ja mustaa puhutaan valkoiseksi.
Eläviksi kuolleiksi manipuloitu kansakunta, joka ei vähääkään välitä mistään ja historia, josta ammentaa myyttejä sepitettäväksi.
Semmoisissa vesissä Putileon Punaparte tai tuttavallisemmin Putler, polvihousuikään jäänyt pieni mies, uiskentelee kuin kala ammeessa vaikka on itse vetänyt juuri tulpan irti.
K jäi jänskät agenttileikit kesken ja isoja pyssyjä on varastossa läjäpäin.
Kun maan perinteetkin velvoittavat, että jokaisen johtajan täytyy hoidella parit kansanmurhat ja kertaalleen järjestellä planeetta ydintuhon partaalle, ja kun millään hinnallakaan ei ole mitään väliä, niin kaikenlaisia metkuja on kiva viritellä meidän muiden Maan asukkaiden riemuksi. – Paitsi venäläisten, jotka eivät vähääkään välitä mistään.
Siinäpä aihetta leikinlaskuun tuon pikku sällin kustannuksella. Tämä avaa sarkastisen näkövinkkelin niin sisä- kuin ulkopuolelta katsoen.
ULKOMAISET UUTUUDET
Legendary cartoonist Seth’s magnum opus Clyde Fans appeared on twenty best of the year lists, including The New York Times, The Guardian, and Washington Post. The first graphic novel nominated for the Giller, Canada’s prestigious national fiction prize, it was also nominated for the Eisner and Trillium Awards.
Clyde Fans peels back the optimism of mid-twentieth century capitalism, showing the rituals, hopes, and delusions of a vanished middle-class–garrulous men in wool suits extolling their wares to taciturn shopkeepers. Like the myth of an ever-growing economy, the Clyde Fans family business is a fraud. The patriarch has abandoned it to mismatched sons, one who strives to keep the company afloat and the other who retreats into his memories.
Abe and Simon Matchcard are brothers, struggling to save their archaic family business selling oscillating fans in a world switching to air conditioning. Simon flirts with becoming a salesman as a last-ditch effort to leave the protective walls of the family home, but is ultimately unable to escape Abe’s critical voice in his head. As Clyde Fans Co. crumbles, so does the relationship between the two men, who choose very different life paths but both end up utterly unhappy.
Seth’s intimate storytelling and gorgeous art allow cityscapes and detailed period objects to tell their own stories as the brothers struggle to find themselves suffocating in an airless home.

Collecting Superman and the Authority #1-2.
Simon Hanselmann: Below Ambition
Megg and Werewolf Jones are Horse Mania.
Horse Mania is a test of the audience’s patience, proudly the “worst band in town,” without any ambition to make it.
Join the musicians as they battle through shoddy, distracted practice sessions, a squalid house show, and a doomed interstate tour. Watch as they drunkenly flail through their sets amidst toothaches, nervous breakdowns, suicide attempts, mounting hatred, and a galaxy of benzos.
This is music and performance in its most primal, multifaceted, and pure form. Feel the tension. See the dirty looks. Taste the pain. Smell the depravity. Hear the veiled beauty. Horse Mania wants you to lose your mind.
Below Ambition is a meditation on youth, performance, and memory as only Simon Hanselmann, the best comedic writer in comics, is capable of.
The book will also include a flexidisc single by Horse Mania, Stick It In for the Ambient, which is tipped into the front cover for easy removal and play.

M. Thomas Inge: Comics as Culture (K)
KÄYTETTY, HYVÄKUNTOINEN.
These eleven essays by one of America’s authorities on popular culture survey the influence of the comic strip and the importance of the comic book. Despite legions of detractors, he shows the comics to be an art form that has enriched and reflecte most of American culture.
The chapters are unified by their discussion of the ways comic strips, cartoons, and comic books relate to the larger cultural trends of the nation. Connections between literature, film, technology, art, and the comics are examined in general, with specific appreciations of such classic examples of the comics as Little Nemo in Slumberland, Krazy Kat, Snuffy Smith, Popeye, Peanuts, EC comic books, and the New Yorker cartoon.
Why do comics both amuse and arouse controversy? Here is an attempt at an answer in a sharp-eyed comics lover’s probing look at this step-child genre. He finds them a legitimate form of creative expression capable of confronting the major questions of society and the humanities but with a gentler spirit that leads to laughter.
Also included in this appealing overview of an expressly American art form are bibliographic surveys of the histories, reference works, and anthologies available for the study and appreciation of comic strips and comic books.

Nyårsafton, Hervé drar ner till stamfiket. Där väntar en överraskning på honom. Kompisarna har bestämt ett vad: blir han av med oskulden under helgen bjuder de på champagne. Lyckas han inte får han själv stå för en omgång …
En brokig, festlig serieroman där allt och ingenting händer. Det handlar om längtan efter frihet och efter knull, intresset för nakna brudar och skräcken för levande kvinnor, om klasskillnader och kondomstorlekar, om krogronder och mördande monotoni. Om värmen inuti och kölden utanför i gudsförgätna industriområden i ett litet nordfranskt industrisamhälle vid mitten av sextiotalet.
Barus teckningar präglas av en stämningsmättad stil någonstans mellan karikatyr och realism, som förstärks ytterligare genom Daniel Ledrans sensibla expressionistiska färgläggning, som domineras av dova blåtoner och murrigt gult. Albumet är ett av seriekonstens obestridliga mästerverk, belönat bland annat vid seriefestivalen i Angoulême och med svenska Seriefrämjandets Urhundenplakett för årets bästa seriealbum..
