Title: King-Cat classicx
Subtitle: the best of King-Cat comics and stories
Description: "John Porcellino has long been considered one of the greatest cartoonists to come from the self-publishing and zine movement of the early '90s. His spare approach to words and pictures focuses on the smallest of details, revealing a wealth of meaning and emotion in everyday events that most of us overlook in our daily hustle and bustle. Since 1989, he has released over 65 issues of his self-published King-Cat Comics and Stories. This large collection provides a comprehensive overview of the first fifty issues, with extensive endnotes, an index, and selections of all the extra features that make an individual King-Cat its own unique experience - essays, articles, stories, and letters from friends. Included are nearly 300 pages of comics, documenting the transition from Porcellino's earliest scrawls to his later, perfectly minimalist delineations. The subject matter reflects all of Porcellino's concerns - family, family pets, the natural world, work, music, romance." "King-Cat Classix presents an artist who has always known what he wanted to do; it demonstrates Porcellino's confidence and skill as they've grown steadily throughout the years."--BOOK JACKET.
