The satirical masterpiece that ushered in the graphic novel era to European comics, finally available in English--the beginning of an ambitious publishing project introducing one of Europe's most beloved cartoonists to American audiences.
Fantagraphics presents two experimental, early works by the French cartooning legend Tardi. These comics, created in the mid-''70s, provide a fascinating preview of the masterworks of his prolific career. While they are not narratively linked, an eerie sense of foreboding suffuses stories in this collection: they both depict sex and brutal violence and condemn the horrors of war.
The French cartooning master Tardi's first solo graphic novel is a riotous action-adventure comedy.
In the final volume of this intergenerational memoir, a powerful tribute to a lost generation of WWII POWs, the author's father comes home.
"The second of two volumes presenting all four hardboiled graphic crime novels by Jean-Patrick Manchette and Tardi. Like a Sniper Lining Up His Shot - Martin Terrier, killer-for-hire, needs just one more big job so that he can turn in his guns for good and return home to marry his childhood sweetheart. But soon, he's on the run - not only from the authorities and his treacherous ex-clients, but also from a crime syndicate seeking revenge for an earlier hit on one of theirs. In Run Like Crazy, Run Like Hell, philanthropist Michael Hartog hires Julie, just out of a psychiatric asylum, as a nanny. But he plans to fake the kidnapping of his son, Peter - and frame Julie for it. But Julie is no pushover, and soon, Julie and Peter are on the run, pursued by the police, and by Hartog's enforcer, the hulking contract killer, Thompson."--Provided by publisher
Captured French soldier Rene Tardi finally gets a taste of freedom, as prisoners and German officers alike are forced to evacuate the POW camp he has languished in for the past four years. A long, gruelling journey eastward begins, where Tardi and his fellow POWs must evade the Russian Army, stave off their gnawing hunger, and contend with the increasingly ill-tempered German soldiers accompanying them. Featuring meticulous line work punctuated by stunning splashes of colour, Jacques Tardi''s grim yet heartening biographical portrait of his father''s life is a personal and artistic triumph.
This is the first of Jacques Tardi's four major graphic novel adaptations of legendary French crime writer Léo Malet's original "Nestor Burma" novels -- in this one, Burma avenges the death of an old anarchist friend.
