The Collected Toppi Vol. 1

"Widely considered a master of graphic storytelling, Italian illustrator and author Sergio Toppi brought a previously unimagined level of artistry to the practice of sequential storytelling. His work has influenced many of the industry's most celebrated creators, inspiring the medium with his dazzling and unique creative direction. His body of work covers a wide array of historical periods and cultural setting, which he brought to life though extensive research and a sense of cinematic design. The first volume collects eleven short fantasy tales originally published as Black & Tans, Krull, and A Minor God, presented here for the first time in English." -- Back cover.
