The years of distinguished work have earned Alfredo a special place in comics history." — Gil Kane. In the late 1960s, an extremely talented group of Filipino illustrators took the American comic book industry by storm — and the late Alfredo Alcala led the way, working for both Marvel and DC on such popular characters as Conan the Barbarian and Batman. This unique work is loaded with amazing art and pointers on observational methods, composition, and other techniques. In addition to insightful interviews with Alcala, the book features pages from his groundbreaking masterwork, Voltar, which was hailed as a new concept in comic book form, an epic in narrative art, and a milestone in sequential art illustration. Students, professionals, teachers, and fans will treasure this inspiring volume and its insider's look at comic book artistry. "A wonderful look at the thought process of one of the best artist/inkers in comic book history and should be read, not just by comic book fans, but by anyone who appreciates great art." — Rushford Public Library

Book excerpt: Fun empowering teaching tool for parent and teacher, helping our young surf life's fun and tricky stuff (3-12yrs) A collection of adventures and conversations following a loving family of pets as they share their life-handling problems and how to solve them together. Gently encouraging conversation between adult and child. A great addition to any child’s home or teacher’s read-aloud library. In The Ginormous Series, the animals chat about; good deeds, bullying, being accepted, feeling lonely, self-esteem, worrying, anxiety, getting lost, recycling, welcoming new members to a family or classroom, that listening, and learning can be fun, and how to care for others. GINORMOUS JO'S SECRET Through stunning watercolour images, Cunningham explains the very link between listening and learning. Though the huge, white, huggable dog called Jo wasn’t sure at first when her mum brought home a cuddly little kitten called Vinnie, she grew to love him with time. Vinnie was loving, playful and made her laugh a lot. Because Jo didn’t want Vinnie behaving like their noisy, shouty, and greedy neighbours, she introduces him to “Liswat,” telling him the great importance of listening and learning from others and the very secret behind her being a clever dog. Does Vinnie now know the meaning of “Liswat?” THE GINORMOUS SERIES REVIEWS “These books should be available in every home and school.” “WOW! I absolutely loved these books! What a great teaching tool.” "Cannot wait to share with my school class as part of PSHCE lessons.” "A way for parents to educate their children on important topics in a way that children will listen." "This was the cutest book that touched my heart. The author did an outstanding job, I enjoyed it and I think that any child would love this story too." "Hooray for Ginormous Joe! What a great story. Pure love really does have redeeming/transforming properties doesn't it? I want to meet Ginormous Joe and give him a great big hug. Gorgeous illustrations!" “A lesson in life for us all. I shall remember liswat. I know a beautiful large white dog just like Jo who listens and watches.” “So real. Fires the imagination - makes you look at animals in a different light."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An account of obsolete machinery and outmoded business planning Chris Oliveros's The Envelope Manufacturer documents the hardships and gradual disintegration of the career of the owner of an independent small business. The book begins as the head of the manufacturing company is already deep in financial straits: he struggles to deal with a series of late payments and dwindling orders and finds ways to keep his company running by perilously deferring certain invoices. Ultimately, the pressures of his role begin to have an effect on him psychologically; he starts to talk to himself and occasionally cannot distinguish the difference between reality and his imaginings. Even his personal life suffers, as his wife becomes disillusioned with the detached, dispassionate man he has become. Set in the mid-twentieth century, just before the end of the period when most goods were still produced domestically, The Envelope Manufacturer chronicles the gradual demise of a small company as it struggles to adapt to a changing economic landscape. Published by Chris Oliveros; distributed by Drawn & Quarterly.
