Kim Deitch (born 1944 [1] in Los Angeles) is an American cartoonist who was an important figure in the underground comix movement of the 1960s, remaining active in the decades that followed with a variety of books and comics, sometimes using the pseudonym Fowlton Means . The son of illustrator and animator Gene Deitch, much of Kim Deitch's work deals with the animation industry and characters from the world of cartoons. [2] His best-known character is a mysterious cat named Waldo, who appears variously as a famous cartoon character of the 1930s, as an actual character in the "reality" of the strips, as the hallucination of a hopeless alcoholic surnamed Mishkin (a victim of the Boulevard of Broken Dreams), as the demonic reincarnation of Judas Iscariot; and who, occasionally, is claimed to have overcome Deitch and written the comics himself. Waldo's appearance is reminiscent of such black cat characters as Felix the Cat, Julius the Cat, and Krazy Kat. Kim Deith has sometimes worked with brothers Simon Deitch and Seth Deitch. Contents. Biography 1 Personal life 2 Awards 3 Bibliography 4 Creator series and books 4.1 Publications appeared in 4.2 Animation 4.3. Biography. Deitch regularly contributed comical, psychedelia-tinged comic strips (featuring the flower child "Sunshine Girl" and "The India Rubber Man") to New York City's premier underground newspaper, the East Village Other , beginning in 1967. He joined Bhob Stewart as an editor of EVO's all- comics spin-off, Gothic Blimp Works , in 1969. Deitch was also a publisher, as co-founder of the Cartoonists Co-op Press. Deitch's The Boulevard of Broken Dreams was chosen by Time magazine in 2005 as one of the 100 best English-language graphic novels ever written. [3] In 2008, the Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art featured a retrospective exhibition of his work. Personal life. Deitch was formerly married to Sally Cruikshank. [1] His current wife is named Pam. Awards. Deitch won the 2003 Eisner Award for Best Single Issue/Story for The Stuff of Dreams (Fantagraphics) [4] and in 2008 he was awarded an Inkpot Award. In 2014, he was nominated for the Ignatz Award for Outstanding Graphic Novel for The Amazing, Enlightening and Absolutely True Adventures of Katherine Whaley . [5] Hollywoodland.

  • The Dahl House
    Microcosm Publishing PO Box 14332 Portland, OR 97293 www.microcosmpublishing.com Welcome to the Dahl House Alienation, Incarceration and Inebriation in the New American Rome by Ken Dahl The new Welcome to the Dahl House book collects 10 years of comic artist Ken Dahl’s best work. Dahl, winner of the Ignatz Award for best mini-comic for his STD nightmare Monsters #1 , gives the goods in equally hilarious and harrowing doses. His comics show a dirty, beaten down, drunk-as-hell America where the underdog always rules—even if he never wins. Dahl’s work is normal ol’ painful life with all the warts and scars and stretch-marks fully visible and well-lit. It’s heavy stuff, and decidedly not for the faint of heart, but Dahl’s caustic sense of humor, courage under fire, and strong undercurrent of hope balance out the dark with light and give his comics a well-rounded, triumphant epicness. Like a graphic novel mash up of Gummo, Jesus’ Son, and Married with Children, Welcome to the Dahl House tells it like it is, the existential American experience in 128 pages. “A double-barreled assault on American culture and consumerism and its dev - astatng results ... Dahl’s writing is simply brilliant. He successfully presents a view of America from the outside.” - Midnight Fiction “Ken Dahl’s comics are really well drawn, imaginative, spirited, and forthright, SUBJECT CATEGORY: Graphic Novel, Comic but best of all, painfully, painfully honest.” - Ivan Brunetti, author of Misery RELEASE: 7/1/08 Loves Company PRICE: Retail: $6 | Wholesale: $4.20 ISBN: 978-1-934620-02-1 FORMAT: paperback, 5.5 x 7”, 128 pgs, illustrated ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Born in Honolulu, raised on the roads of the MARKETING NOTES: continental US, Ken Dahl comes at comix- - Author winner of Ignatz Award for best mini-comic makin' with a wealth of world-weariness and - Book is featured on 25,000 postcards distributed wisdom under his belt.

  • By ALEC LONGSTRETH Distributed by Adhouse Books Diamond Order
    Contact: Alec Longstreth • [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE More info: www.alec-longstreth.com/basewood/ a graphic novel TEN YEARS in the making! by ALEC LONGSTRETH “Drawn with delicate precision, brimming with heart and adventure, Basewood is an exquisite gem of a work. It’s a genuine miracle that a comic this beautifully unique exists at all.” – James Kochalka “Longstreth’s deceptively simple drawings of this harsh world filled with axes, ropes, pulleys, and levers, a place where you must bend nature with your bare hands to survive, have a layered intricacy that looks like something that should be carved on a medieval cathedral. One of my favorite books to spend time with.” – Jeff Smith “Alec Longstreth is the most generous and enthusiastic cartoonist I’ve ever met, and his work brims over with that same contagious energy. His greatest work to date, Basewood, is a full sensory immersion into a meticulously-crafted, warm-hearted, and most of all epic world.” – Craig Thompson ABOUT BASEWOOD: Adventure! Mystery! Tree houses! A Wolf-Dragon! Basewood tells the story of a young man who wakes up in the woods, with no memory of how he got there. The reader follows along as our hero tries to uncover the details of his mysterious past. Drawn in a highly-detailed crosshatching style, this graphic novel took over ten years to write and draw. This beautiful, hardback edition of Basewood was funded by a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign that surpassed its $10,000 funding goal after only 48 hours. A French translation of Basewood was published by L’employé du Moi in 2012, and now the book is finally available here in the United States.

  • LION FORGE to PUBLISH HAZEL NEWLEVANT’S DEBUT GRAPHIC NOVEL, NO IVY LEAGUE Recent Ignatz Winner to Release Debut Graphic Novel in 2018
    ™ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Jeremy Atkins | Publicist [email protected] 503.837.9364 LION FORGE TO PUBLISH HAZEL NEWLEVANT’S DEBUT GRAPHIC NOVEL, NO IVY LEAGUE Recent Ignatz Winner To Release Debut Graphic Novel in 2018 ST LOUIS, MO–Lion Forge will publish Hazel Newlevant’s debut graphic memoir, No Ivy League in late 2018. Hoping to make money to see an out-of-town concert, 17-year-old Hazel Newlevant takes a summer job clearing ivy from the forest in her home town of Portland, Oregon. Homeschooled, affluent, and sheltered, Hazel finds her job working side by side with at- risk teens a new world that she has no skill in navigating. She loves hip hop, but spending time with kids who are black and Latino is a new experience for her. As the weeks pass, Hazel’s once-comfortable homeschooled skin has become more ill fitting. Things come to a head when she finds herself the butt of a black peer’s sexual insult and, instead of trying to work it out, she reports him. The consequences of her actions play out not only for the boy but for Hazel herself, as she’s forced to confront the reality of white privilege. This uncomfortable and compelling memoir is an important story of a girl’s awakening to the racial insularity of her life, the power of white privilege, and the hidden story of segregation in Portland. “No Ivy League is an extremely vulnerable, close-to-my-heart work, and Lion Forge and Andrea Colvin are the perfect people to publish it” says creator Hazel Newlevant.

In 1989, a prescient Chris Oliveros created D+Q with a simple mandate–to publish the world’s best cartoonists.

Abandoned Cars is Tim Lane’s first collection of graphic short stories, noir- ish narratives that are united by their exploration of the great American mytho- logical drama by way of the desperate and haunted characters that populate its pages. Lane’s characters exist on the margins of society—alienated, floating in the void between hope and despair, confused but introspective. The writing is straightforward, the stories mainstream but told in a pulpy idiom with an existential edge, often in the first person, reminiscent of David Goodis’s or Jim Thompson’s prose, or of films like Pick-Up on South Street or Out of the Past. Visually, Lane’s drawing is in a realistic mode, reminiscent of Charles Burns, that heightens the tension in stories that veer between naturalism on the one hand and the comical, nightmarish, and hallucinatory on the other. Here, American culture is a thrift store and the characters are thrift store junkies living among the clutter. It’s an America depicted as a subdued and haunted Coney Island, made up of lost characters—boozing, brawling, haplessly shooting themselves in the face, and hopping freight trains in search of Elvis.
