Yeah, we're great, and our books are late. Why, what did you think the headline meant?
Anyway, a new year is upon and it's time to 'fess up about all the late Fantagraphics titles you were expecting to have by now, and don't, because we suck. Specific apologia and weaseling have been added to some titles, others we just pass under mortified silence. 2011 will be better!
The following are printed, on their way to us across the Pacific Ocean, and expected to be available in January or February 2011: • FREEWAY by Mark Kalesniko (usually original graphic novels are late because the author was overly optimistic about how long it would take to write and draw it, but this time it was entirely our fault.) • KING OF THE FLIES VOLUME 2: THE ORIGIN ON THE WORLD by Mezzo and Pirus (and in case you're wondering, Volume 3 is scheduled for September 2012 at this point) • KRAZY AND IGNATZ: 1919-1921 by George Herriman • THE LAST ROSE OF SUMMER by Monte Schulz (again, entirely our fault and neither the author's nor cover artist Cathy Malkasian 's, both of whom are champs and pros.) • MOME #21 edited by Eric Reynolds • POPEYE VOLUME 5: "WHAT'S A JEEP?" by E.C. Segar • ROY CRANE'S BUZ SAWYER VOL. 1: THE WAR IN THE PACIFIC • THE STRANGE CASE OF EDWARD GOREY (NEW EXPANDED HARDCOVER EDITION) by Alexander Theroux • TWILIGHT OF THE ASSHOLES by Tim Kreider
The following are at the printer and are expected to be available in March or April 2011: • THE COMICS JOURNAL #301 • LOVE FROM THE SHADOWS by Gilbert Hernandez • SAFE AREA GORAZDE: THE SPECIAL EDITION by Joe Sacco
The following are expected to ship sometime during the Spring of 2011: • CAPTAIN EASY: THE COMPLETE SUNDAY STRIPS VOLUME 2 by Roy Crane (we had a hard time collecting a few of the last strips on this one-but we're almost there now) • DRAWING POWER edited by Rick Marschall and Warren Bernard • WANDERING SON BOOK ONE by Shimura Takako
The following have been rescheduled: • THE ANTIC CARTOON ART OF T.S. SULLIANT will be reformatted, rethought, re-solicited, and released in early 2012 • FORLORN FUNNIES VOLUME 1 by Paul Hornschemeier will be released in the Summer of 2011 • THE HIDDEN by Richard Sala will be re-solicited and released in July 2011 • HOW TO READ NANCY will be re-solicited and released in 2012 in a vastly expanded version from what we first expected • IS THAT ALL THERE IS? (né MODERN SWARTE , originally announced for 2007) in late Fall 2011: Yes, Joost has turned in all the files and publishers in three countries are synchronizing their watches! • NANCY IS HAPPY will be released in late 2011: It turns out that there was more production work than we anticipated to make the book as perfect as humanly possible.) • POGO VOLUME 1 will be released in the Fall of 2011 - yes, seriously, for real this time
