"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title. Starred Review. Almost 25 years after he first haunted the streets of the dystopian metropolis known as Radiant City, the mysterious Mister X returns in this beautifully restored collection, showcasing the comic's entire run. The brainchild of Toronto-based graphic designer Motter, the first issue of Mister X appeared in 1984 and introduced readers to the shadowy title character who had returned to Radiant City after a long absence. Purporting to be one of the city's original architects, Mister X is determined to repair the broken metropolis, which has gone mad as a result of his own invention of psychetecture, wherein buildings can alter a person's mood or neuroses. In order to accomplish his task, Mister X must forgo sleep entirely, with the help of a drug known as insomnalin, as well as battle a revolving group of thugs. The landmark series, with its nods to German expressionism and Bauhaus, introduced readers to the early work of several artists who would become influential in alternative comics, including the Hernandez brothers ( Love and Rockets ) and Seth ( Palooka-ville ). A treat for longtime fans and new readers alike, this journey through one man's waking nightmare is still an eyeball-popping visit to a stunning retro future. (Nov.) Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. From Booklist : Mister X was among the early successes of the nascent independent comics movement of the early 1980s, when the Big Two—DC and Marvel— began losing their stranglehold on the medium. Its toxic setting was Radiant City, a metropolis whose postmodern architecture (an uneasy mélange of art deco, Bauhaus, German expressionism, and film noir) drove inhabitants mad. Mister X, purportedly the city’s architect, had forsaken sleep to work ceaselessly to find a cure. The serial was conceived by designer Motter, who turned over much of the writing and nearly all the drawing to hired hands, most notably Jaime and Gilbert Hernandez, just beginning their long run on the landmark Love and Rockets, and future alt-comix luminary Seth, who had yet to perfect his elegantly simple graphic style. No matter who was involved, Motter’s background as a record- and book-cover designer meant that style was always at least as important as the erratic and convoluted story line. Although unmistakably a product of its era, Mister X remains a visual and conceptual treat a quarter-century later. --Gordon Flagg. Mister X: The Archives.

Book Review – Mister X: The Archives. Mister X: The Archives Created by Dean Motter; Dave Marshall, editor Featuring Los Bros. Hernandez, Paul Rivoche, Klaus Schönefeld, Seth, Ty Templeton Short stories by Rob Eggleton, Neil Gaiman, Dave McKean, Bill Sienkiewicz Dark Horse Books May 2017 Reviewed by William Grabowski. This hefty volume collects Issues 1 through 14 of the Vortex Mister X comic-book series, and “Heartsprings & Watchstops” from Issue 1 of the Atomeka comic-book series A-1 . “ In the days when the popular arts were just starting to get to grips with postmodernism,” recalls Warren Ellis in his Foreword, “ Mister X presented a fable of the postmodern condition: a detoured Ayn Rand hero, an architect who dropped out and allowed his vision of the perfect city to be bastardized returns as a wreck of a man to try and fix it.” The enigmatic Mister X, who must force himself (aided by the drug Insomnalin) never to succumb to sleep, vows to restore Radiant City to its original noirish grandeur. X claims to be one of its architects, but can he survive his own nightmarish condition and guilt over inventing Psychetecture, responsible for driving large numbers of residents mad? If the fights against relentless toughs don’t kill him, will the buildings and their mood-altering capabilities render him a raving neurotic? With nods to historical design styles known as Brutalist, Bauhaus, and even German eExpressionism, the artists of the Mister X series were—and are still—hugely influential; the Hernandez brothers and Seth going on to create, respectively, Love and Rockets and Palookaville. The alchemical mix of stunning art, and stories by Rob Eggleton, Neil Gaiman, Dave McKean, and Bill Sienkiewicz make Mister X: The Archives itself a stand-alone work of art.

KARSKI'S MISSION: TO STOP THE HOLOCAUST , published by the Jan Karski Educational Foundation in 2015, has been awarded a Silver Medal by the 21st annual 2017 Independent Publisher Book Awards in the Graphic Novel /Drawn Book – Drama /Documentary category. (www.independentpublisher.com) This graphic novel (see below) was created thanks to the dedication and expertise of the editorial team, including Wanda Urbanska (editor-in- chief); Bozena U. Zaremba (editor); Bozena Nowicka McLees, Ewa Wierzyńska and E. Thomas Wood (historical consultation.) In the process, the text was updated from its 1984 version to bring it into the 21st century. Then came the tricky part. Illustrating the 131-page tome. "Painstakingly researched, it was challenging. A diffrent sort of project for me." Part quasi-documentary, part instructional book, part soap-opera story of a young plant manager's struggle with a new business, his family and their corporate owners. He must find a way to save his factory using a new theory of mass production, Eli Goldratt has been described by Fortune as a "guru to industry" and by Business Week as a "genius". His book, The Goal , is a gripping fast paced business novel. One of Eli Goldratt's convictions was that the goal of an individual or an organization should not be defined in absolute terms. A good definition of a goal is one that sets us on a path of ongoing improvement. Pursuing such a goal necessitates more than one breakthrough. In fact it requires many. To be in a position to identify these break- throughs we should have a deep understanding of the underlying rules of our environment.

  • How to Kill a by Isabel Ruebens Jaime Hernandez
    T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S How to Kill a By Isabel Ruebens Jaime Hernandez Heralded in the comics community for his stories about punk rockers, lesbian aliens, and rocket-repair mechanics, Jaime Hernandez continues to publish fiction for Fantagraphics Books. His tale of writer Isabel “Izzy” Ruebens reproduced here is the stuff of comic legend and a remarkable piece of storytelling from one of a pair of gifted American artists who Chicano theory guru Ramon Saldívar has called “the best read Chicano writers in the United States.” 252 T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S 253 T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S 254 T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S 255 T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S After Thought/s Jaime Hernandez and the B/ordered Psychocultural Terrain of a Latina Writer William A. Nericcio Jaime (“How to Kill a By Isabel Ruebens) and Gilbert Hernandez( “Errata Stigmata”) have transformed the comic book medium via their serialized graphic narratives in production since the early 1980's. While Los Brothers Hernandez (as they are known to their readers/spectators) have been influenced by developments in their own field, they are as likely to cite Picasso, Nietzsche, García Márquez, Klee, Kahlo, or Modotti as they are Disney or Archie comics (in particular Dan de Carlo of Betty and Veronica fame) as figures who have influenced their development.
