Previews this month from Swifty Morales Press:
REAL STUFF
written by Dennis P. Eichhorn and illustrated by dozens of the finest artists ever to sequentialize.
Dennis Eichhorn has been a bartender, dishwasher, cook, doorman, process server, stable hand, sailor, bouncer, taxicab driver, phone interviewer, hod carrier, publisher, firefighter, and paralegal investigator. He's also been writing comic stories about his life and experiences for the past fifteen years, illustrated by some of the finest cartoonists in comic-book land. Such luminaries as Peter Bagge, Dave Cooper, Julie Doucet, Jim Woodring, Joe Sacco, Chester Brown, Mary Fleener, Peter Kuper, and Jason Lutes are only a few of the contributors to this volume. For the full contributor list, please visit this hyperlink.
This collection presents some of Mr. Eichhorn's best stories in chronological order, to enable you to read as Li'l Denny grows into High-School Denny, morphs into College Denny, and continues even into, yes, Adult Denny. Although these stories are but scattered vignettes in his life, they present a compelling narrative.
The book is 208 pages long and consists of 43 stories, five of which appear here for the first time in brand-new glorious color. A full-color cover gallery graces the back pages, including covers by Jaime Hernandez, Gilbert Hernandez, Daniel Clowes, and Charles Burns.
The cover, by Mark Zingarelli, is black-foil stamped, and the binding is sewn for maximum durability, perfect for reading in almost any location. It also lies flat, for those discriminating consumers among you that like to read comics on a music-stand, or during breakfast.
For those of you who are familiar with the original comic book
Real Stuff, this collection will still be a worthwhile entertainment buy! For it includes stories from the other, sexier Eichhorn comic book series
Real Smut, as well as the
Northwest EXTRA!,
Scram magazine, and
Big Mouth comics.
The ISBN number is 0-9745870-0-1, and it will be available in finer comic-book shops and bookstores across the land in January.
