Fantagraphics in trouble

I would agree. Keep your LE Kitsune figure!! Many people (including myself) do not have one. Instead, go to FB's website and complete your collection!

I'd like to help as well. However, I already own all the UY TPBs by Fantagraphics. I was thinking of buying another book from FB, what do you guys recommend?

I really like the Love and Rockets. http://www.fantagraphics.com/artist/lr/lrgn/lrgn.html
Death of Speedy is pretty good.

Also Chis Ware is a great storyteller too. JIMMY CORRIGAN is a little dark (okay a lot), but beautiful storytelling: http://www.fantagraphics.com/artist/acme/acme.html

Looks like they are also selling other books as well: Fairy Tales of Oscar Wilde by P. Craig Russell are very good! Little Lits are good. They even have Adolf by Osamu Tezuka in their Contemporary catalog.

None of these books are cheap, but they provide great storytelling.

Peace,

I just spoke to Stan who has so generously offered to send us a Usagi cover to sell/auction.

I'm not sure how a raffle would work or how it wold be handled, but we'd be hapy to do whatever we could to make it work if Stan is up for it.

Let me just take this opportunity to say what an honor it's been to publish Stan all these years — from around 1986, if memory serves! I consider usagi to be the contemporary equivalent of Barks and Stanley — artful work that can be enjoyed by children and adults. My son and I have read every Usagi book together. His only complaint is that there aren't more.

Thanks, again.

Thanks. I'll look for those books, as well as old UY issues and the color Specials
