''Nobrow's bold, expansive formula dissolves the
borders supposedly demarcating illustration and comics.
Their fluidity and hybridity infuse each miniature in
this expertly crafted, alluringly colored feast for the
eyes, mind, and heart.''--Paul Gravett, author of ''1001
Comic Books You Must Read Before You Die''''You want a
cool book showing the latest and the best comics design
out there, Nobrow will more than double your
fun.''--Warren Bernard, executive director, Small Press
ExpoTaking inspiration from Aldous Huxley's seminal 1931
novel of the same name, ''Nobrow 7'' invites forty-five
creative visionaries to re-interpret the theme of a
''Brave New World.''Is this our brave new world? This is
just one of the questions posed in a stunning
large-format, 128-page presentation that features
cutting-edge work from the world's most exciting
cartoonists and illustrators.Comprised of fifteen
cartoonists and thirty illustrators, the latest edition
of Nobrow's flagship anthology continues to showcase the
very best talent in the world of visual and narrative
arts. Maintaining the acclaimed flip-cover format of
''Nobrow 6,'' ''Nobrow 7'' is, in fact, two titles
rolled into one: one side dedicated to comics, the other
dedicated entirely to illustration.Featuring: Jillian
Tamaki (''Indoor Voice,'' Drawn & Quarterly), Luke
Pearson (''Hilda and the Midnight Giant,'' Nobrow
Press), Joost Swarte (''Is That All There Is?''
Fantagraphics Books), Tom Gauld (''Goliath,'' Drawn
& Quarterly), Anders Nilsen (''Big Questions,''
Drawn & Quarterly), Joseph Lambert (winner of Ignatz
Outstanding Artist award for ''I Will Bite You''), and
