Author: Virgil Partch
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books

Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
Only a few months after the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor and the same year that Albert Camus offered the world his bleak vision of man’s existence by introducing his philosophical dictum of The Absurd, Virgil Partch burst onto the scene with his own twist on the phrase. Partch was a cartoonist who offered comic counterpoint to the grim headlines and a unique perspective on human nature in the pages of the nation’s most popular magazines. Known to millions by his jazzy signature, VIP, this comic genius ushered in a new era of the gag cartoon―zany, sometimes surreal, always hilarious―that inspired a generation of fellow cartoonists starting in the 1940s and ’50s. His madcap style of humor was reflected in the cutting-edge comedic sensibilities of Burns & Allen, Jack Benny, Ernie Kovacs, Bob & Ray, Stan Freberg, and Jean Shepherd, and would position Partch as one of the most prolific “gag-men” of his day. VIP contributed to an astonishing array of magazines, wrote gags for other cartoonists, illustrated books, album covers, and advertisements, and adorned merchandise including, appropriately, cocktail glasses.VIP: The Mad World of Virgil Partch is the first time Partch’s life and career has been treated in full, collecting amazing artwork from the entire range of his inspired career and featuring his own writings.

Pages : 222
Book Description
In a fallen world, where bad things happen to good people, Grady McCracken is chosen to set things right... The Hankotchetejas nation has been under the power of a foul smelling, mind-numbing potion and enslaved by Charon, their evil chief, since the loss of the sacred seeds many years ago. The Great Father has promised the restoration of justice, peace, and the righting of all evils with the return of his good son, Anomon. But before good Chief Anomon can come to power and depose his evil brother, the sacred seeds must be recovered and the people in the Valley of the Chiefs must be liberated from the evil power that binds them. A mild mannered and gentle schoolteacher, Grady McCracken, is chosen by a miniature Indian chief to travel with him into the mountains of Colorado to find the seeds, free the captives, and restore the Valley of the Chiefs to its rightful owners. In their quest for the seeds, Grady McCracken and the Chief face constant perils from the Farmundos, Charon's dangerous army. In addition, Grady's quest leads him on a path of self-discovery and spiritual evolution that will forever leave him changed. As delightfully entertaining as it is thought-provoking, Grady McCracken and the Valley of the Chiefs offers a modern day allegory that readers of all ages and backgrounds can appreciate.
