Nick Bertozzi - Comics


			I've been reading and making comics since I was a kid. Putting together words and pictures is the best way that I can get you to listen to me.

			THE SALON Spring '07 from Griffin, 192pages, trade paperback, full-color "A wild mixture of art history and mystery, The Salon is a graphic-novel tour de force. Bertozzi's drawing style is both comedic and beautiful, and his evocation of early 20th century Paris is a delight. His depictions of these famous artists -- Picasso, Braque, Stein, Satie and Apollinaire, to name the principals, and there are others -- is a source of great pleasure, and the story he tells is strange, humorous, and thrilling. In short, this book is a work of art." -- Jonathan Ames, author of Wake Up, Sir!

			HOUDINI: THE HANDCUFF KING 'Spring '07from CCS/Hyperion 82pages, hardcover, black & white by Jason Lutes & Nick Bertozzi A day in the life of the world's greatest magician, Harry Houdini.
