ALEC: THE YEARS HAVE PANTS (A LIFE-SIZE OMNIBUS)
(W/A) Eddie Campbell
For the first-time ever, the groundbreaking autobiographical comics of master
cartoonist Eddie Campbell are collected in a single volume! Brilliantly observed
and profoundly expressed, the Alec stories present a version of Eddie's own
life, filtered through the alter ego of "Alec MacGarry." Witness Alec's
progression "from beer to wine" — wild nights at the pub, existential despair,
the hunt for love, the quest for art, becoming a "responsible breadwinner,"
feeling lost at his own movie premiere, and much more! At every point, the
author's uncanny eye for irony and wry self-awareness makes even the smallest
occasion into an opportunity for wit and wisdom. This edition collects the
previous Alec books, as well as a generous helping of rare and never-before-seen
material, including an all-new 35-page book, The Years Have Pants. Available in
Hardcover and Softcover editions. (C: 0-1-2)
