Idyl - I'm Age
Description:
IDYL - IM AGE is a 96 page over-sized 9 x 12 art book showcasing the unique vision of celebrated artist Jeffrey Jones. Collected for the first time are all the pages of these graphic strips (both written and illustrated by Jones). This volume contains not only the TWO unpublished Idyl episodes (in National Lampoon), but also the LAST Idyl episode published, which did not make it into the Blue Star edition published in 1975 of collected episodes making this the FIRST comprehensive volume of these two eras of work (1972-1976 and 1981-1987). This volume is published in both Hardcover and Trade Paperback versions has both an Introduction and an insightful Afterword by award winning artist George Pratt.
Note- Due to a late production error the I'M AGE strip from the October 1982 edition of Heavy Metal Magazine is missing from this collection.
---Idyl was my favourite thing that was a comic when I was a teenager. I didn't understand the ones I read, but I loved them anyway. . . . Now they're collected and are as magical and elegant as they ever were.---
