Carol Lay's Time Machine in Fantagraphics' September 2024 Solicits

Fantagraphics launch My Time Machine by Carol Lay, Ocultos by Laura Perez and Elise And The New Partisans by Dominique Grange and Tardi.

Fantagraphics launch graphic novels My Time Machine by Carol Lay, Ocultos by Laura Perez and Elise And The New Partisans by Dominique Grange and Tardi in their September 2024 solicits and solicitations, as well as revisiting some Hate, Donald Duck and Charlie Brown. 

MY TIME MACHINE By Carol Lay
$24.99 / HC / 168 pgs / FC / 7.5" × 10.5"
After finding the blueprints to the Time Traveler of H.G. Wells' novel, a middle-aged woman constructs a (more or less) functioning time machine and decides to save humanity from itself. She heads into the future, encountering ecological collapse and an America that has devolved into full-blown totalitarianism. My Time Machine is both a sly, cautionary political satire and a rollicking time travel story, full of edge-of-your-seat suspense, breezy badinage, and a deeply felt wonder at the universe. It is serious and funny, timely and timeless (literally).

OCULTOS By Laura Pérez
$24.99 / HC / 152 pgs / FC / 9.5" × 6.7"
Ocultos swirls together a series of stories that form a bridge between our world and the next, where thoughts and dreams can bend and shape reality. A woman in therapy is haunted by disturbing visions; a lonely widower feels a presence in her house; a little boy sees bright lights flash across the night sky. Celebrated Spanish comics artist Laura Pérez (Totem) presents another entrancing vision of magic and mystery. Artfully rendered in her signature wispy, atmospheric pencil, Ocultos is a spiritual, reflective work that will leave you spellbound.

ELISE AND THE NEW PARTISANS By Dominique Grange & Tardi
$29.99 / HC / 176 pgs / BW / 8.75" × 11.75"
Feted French cartoonist Tardi masterfully dramatizes the activist and singer Dominique Grange's gripping first-person account of the student protests that rocked France from the '60s to the '70s. Drawn with typical mastery by legendary French cartoonist Tardi, this graphic novel resonates powerfully at a time when the fight against injustice still rages.

WALT DISNEY'S DONALD DUCK VACATION PARADE By Fréderic Brémaud and Federico Bertolucci
$19.99 / HC / 48 pgs / FC / 9.6" × 12.6"
Driven senseless by Duckburg's hustle and bustle, Donald Duck goes on a peaceful camping trip in the forest. But can our mad mallard find rest and relaxation? Not if Chip 'n Dale and Humphrey Bear have their way! Fréderic Brémaud and Federico Bertolucci, the team behind the world-renowned Love graphic novels, present a comics tribute to Donald's Golden Age animation career. It's a feature-length epic in Brémaud's and Bertolucci's acclaimed pantomime style.

The all suburban-New Jersey issue! Weaving between 1985 and the present day, the third issue of Peter Bagge's triumphant return to HATE spans three generations of the Bradley family and friend circle. Ma 'MAGA" Bradley has moved into an assisted living facility, and when Buddy and Lisa pay an obligatory visit, they discover that Stinky's mom lives there as well, forcing Buddy to face his lingering guilt over Stinky's death. Meanwhile, in flashback, teenage Stinky proves every bit as prone to recklessness as he did as an adult. HATE is back and more fiercely funny than ever!
