Dante in English
Excerpt from Dante in English: A Terza Rima Translation and Critique of Terza Rima Translations of the Inferno of Dante (Cantos I-VII), With Notes Be thou or man, or but similitude, the almost monosyllabic simplicity of the original would be lost. And therefore certo has been rendered somewhat freely, but simply, as above. But freedom or substitution there must often be, as every translator is forced to learn.

My Husband's Wife
Like Courtney, Katie believes she's living a fairytale life that was tailor-made just for her, starting with the picture-perfect dentist she married. However, the handsome, successful doctor is nothing more than a calculated, clever fraud that said "I do" one too many times. Matching canary yellow diamond rings, the same Range Rover, and two expensive brick homes purchased in the same neighborhood were all part of the doctor's double life. Dr. Reynolds sold Katie and Courtney a dream that didn't belong to either of them—a dream he'll confiscate without warning in an ending, not even the wives could see coming…
We Told You So
In 1976, a fledgling magazine held forth the the idea that comics could be art. In 2016, comics intended for an adult readership are reviewed favorably in the New York Times, enjoy panels devoted to them at Book Expo America, and sell in bookstores comparable to prose efforts of similar weight and intent. We Told You So: Comics as Art is an oral history about Fantagraphics Books’ key role in helping build and shape an art movement around a discredited, ignored and fading expression of Americana. It includes appearances by Chris Ware, Art Spiegelman, Harlan Ellison, Stan Lee, Daniel Clowes, Frank Miller, and more.
Now #11
The two-time 2021 Eisner Award-nominated comics anthology returns for its sixth year!
Now #9
This ninth issue of Now is anchored by the longest story featured in the magazine to date: "Misguided Love," a 40-page autobiographical tour de force by Texas artist Raquelle Jac. Ping-ponging among relationships, hospitalizations, internet "fame," international travel, sex, romance, and trauma, Jac's dense, obsessive pages read like a manifesto, announcing the arrival of a remarkable new voice in comics. This issue also features Now debuts from Hartley Lin (Young Frances), James Harvey (Masterplasty), and Emil Friis Ernst (Doctor Murder), as well as work from Now regulars Keren Katz (The Academic Hour) and Noah Van Sciver, who homages Basil Wolverton’s cult favorite, science-fiction hero, Spacehawk.
Michael Dormer and the Legend of Hot Curl
This collects the 1960s-1970s surf cartoons--and more--of an artist best known for his Shrimpenstein TV show.
Vague Tales
While experiencing a succession of bewildering parallel universes, a solitary figure has telepathic encounters with a demonic aviatrix, a wandering crystalline being, a flaming sword-wielding warrior, and a mysterious sorceress, all within the confines of his own apartment. Vague Tales is the debut graphic novel from Eisner Awardnominated cartoonist Eric Haven (UR), who moonlighted as a three-time Emmy nominated producer on the TV show MythBusters and has contributed short comic stories for years to esteemed publications such as The Believer and Kramers Ergot. Haven’s work is dark, absurdist, and deadpan, reflecting the apocalyptic undercurrent of modern times. His inky, rubbery drawings buttress his black, absurdist humor.
The Violet Hour
A fledgling World War I-era publisher is trying to decide which work to choose as his imprint's first title, and the choice is further complicated by the arrival of a mysterious machine.
