Description

"Jesse McManus [can], draw in a beautifully cartoony way with great lines and fun sense and sensibilities." -Vice Magazine Imagine comics created from the DNA of John Kricfalusi, Charles Burns with a dash of Jim Woodring. You'd end up with animated, visionary comics by Jesse McManus. His fluid, hyper-kinetic, and lush brush strokes delineate a surreal visionary world of feral children, rubber y animals, and constantly-mutating monsters. The Whistling Factory is an audacious debut from the sui generis frenetic imagination of Jesse McManus. Jesse McManus has been drawing comics for a long time. He was the youngest contributor to the now legendary oversize Kramer's Ergot #7. His comics were featured in many different publications including Vice Magazine. Jesse lives and works in Portland, OR.

Reviews
[Violence Valley] is drawn in a lush brushy style that is part John K bravura and part Charles Burns-like perfection in actual execution of lush brush technique. It's one of those wordless Jim Woodring-type freakout acid trip sequences where the little tyke winds up inside the bowels of the dog somehow and finds inner peace or something-or so you think, and then it's all blood and guts and more amazingly articulated brush lines that delineate said guts that look more like psychedelic patterns than guts.-Frank Santoro, The Comics Journal
Jesse McManus [can], draw in a beautifully cartoony way with great lines and fun sense and sensibilities.-Vice Magazine
Jesse McManus is doing some fantastic work that is exciting, dynamic and full of so much energy.-Robin McConnell, Inkstuds

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
