Acclaimed American poet Tess Taylor responds to Dorothea Lange's photography with a new work In Last West, poet Tess Taylor follows Dorothea Lange's winding paths across California during the Great Depression and in its immediate aftermath. On these journeys, Lange photographed migrant laborers, Dust Bowl refugees, tent cities and Japanese American internment camps. Taylor's hybrid text collages lyric and oral histories against Lange's own journals and notebook fragments, framing the ways social and ecological injustices of the past rhyme eerily with those of the present. The result is a stunning meditation on movement, landscape and place. "Scintillatingly rendered by Taylor as conversation, meditation, road trip, and vivid documentary account, Last West tracks the not-so-distant past into the erupting present, taking on as many poetic forms as there are California topographies." -Forrest Gander, Chancellor of the American Academy of Poets and winner of the 2019 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry

All your twisted favorites return, but this time they’ve brought along a few friends! The ghoulish Halloween adventures continue—but what’s this? The town has been overrun with zombies! Will the undead take a bite out of trick-or-treating forever?! Colored by Michael Kellaher, Kyle Foster and Glasshouse Graphics. Praise for I Luv Halloween, Volume 1 “Giffen and Roman have concocted a black comedy that reads as if Quentin Tarantino and Tim Burton had collaborated on a Halloween heist story.” —Publishers Weekly “Giffen has a bit of a knack for funny, absurd stories and this is one of the best examples . . . Giffen tells it very well, using comedy and witty dialogue and keeping the darker moments few and far between, to give them more impact.” —Trash Mutant “Comics veteran Keith Giffen flexes his comedy—and bad taste—muscles in an irresistible confection that would win nodding approval from Charles Addams and the producers of any self-respecting splatter movie.” —Now Read This!
