(W/A) Drew Friedman Before the politically correct impulses of the 1970s squelched the grand American tradition of the sideshow, people born with abnormalities and others who created theirs, exhibited themselves to the shock and thrill of millions in sideshows nationwide. As a youngster, Drew Friedman often visited Coney Island with his family, and he became fascinated with people who are different. Drew Friedman's Sideshow Freaks presents fifty of his favorite historic human oddities, famous and obscure, in mesmerizing full-color portraits.

Karl Wirsum's drawings from 1967-70 represent an artist is full bloom. A member of the Hairy Who exhibition and publication group, Karl's ecstatic paintings are renowned but his drawings have rarely been seen. This oversized, limited edition catalog, published with the exhibition of the same name at Derek Eller Gallery, NYC, presents 28 drawings reproduced at nearly full size, along with a essay and photographs. This work is timeless, forward thinking drawing that occupies its own category.

Terry 100 Channels is a 30 minute animated film drawn at the peak of King Terry's powers and directed by the cult filmmaker Shinya (Tetsuo: The Iron Man) Tsukamoto. It was first issued in 1985 on VHS as part of a series of illustration-based videos produced in Japan. I am proud to reissue this, Terry’s only film, and declare it a masterpiece of drawn cinema and a truly funky good time. Long live the King. Strictly limited edition, man.

(W/A) Renee French In H Day, Renee French explores, through metaphor and in pictures, her struggles with migraine headaches, marshaling troops of insects, beasts and humanoids to envision the processes that result in such hideous sensations. A sweeping, often tense narrative of invasion, repulsion and liberation, H Day can be read both as an oblique autobiography and as a suspenseful fantasy story.

Burma is a country notorious for its use of concealment and isolation as social control, where scissors-wielding censors monitor the papers, the de facto leader of the opposition has been under decade-long house arrest, insurgent-controlled regions are effectively cut off from the world, and rumor is the most reliable source of current information. Guy Delisle turns his gaze to the everyday for a sense of the big picture. Burma Chronicles is drawn with a minimal line, and interspersed with wordless vignettes and moments of Delisle's distinctive slapstick humor.
