Graphic Lit: Vintage, Independent, Marvel, and DC
In what may be an expression of nostalgia, we carry a lot of the genius of newspaper-published graphic literature, a Golden Age that lasted from the 1930s to the departure of Bill Watterson's Calvin & Hobbes. The two comic book behemoths, Marvel and DC, are included here. We don’t cover the “universes” of each company. Occasionally, however, they publish some strikingly original or quirky work that suits our inventory. On this page we feature all our adult graphic literature (some of which, of course, is perfectly appropriate for children); our Young Adult graphic literature has its own page under that name.
Content note: I have moved all of Neil Gaiman’s work (Sandman and others) to his page here.

Prince Valiant Volume 3: 1941-1942
"Prince Valiant" set a new standard for the serial drama when it debuted in 1937. Now Foster's legendary medieval epic is collected in a sumptuous new hardcover series, with each volume containing a full year's worth of strips in an oversized format showcasing the strip's spectacular, fully restored color artwork.
