Measures 6-7/8" X 10-1/4", 120 pp, b w illustrations, written illustrated by MARK MARTIN, front cover art by ALLEN FREEMAN MARK MARTIN, stated "First Fantagraphics Books edition: April 1990" and "1 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2," trade paperback graphic novel published by Fantagraphics Books (WA). For fans of the BATMAN comic books, THE ULTIMATE GNATRAT should be irresistible -- a very sly, witty, stylish, uncontrollable laugh-riot, the initial creation of crazed comic book artist writer, MARK MARTIN, who eventually gave us 20 NUDE DANCERS 20, MONTGOMERY WART, and other outstanding examples of outrageous American humor. THE ULTIMATE GNATRAT arrived in 1990, as a direct result of the DC graphic novel series THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS by FRANK MILLER and KLAUS JANSON (as well as the 1989 BATMAN movie), and follows a similar formula -- but then explodes in totally unexpected and hilarious directions! Older readers may be reminded of WONDER WART-HOG, and younger readers will simply be mystified. Highly recommended! Shipping charges include postage (including USPS Tracking on domestic shipments), packaging materials, labor fuel (the nearest post office is 14 MILES away!); but I do combine shipping charges on multiple items -- so fill up that cart NOW an' save some $$$!
