Hey Comics Fans, A few cool announcements in Top Shelf land:
LOST GIRLS FINALLY RELEASED IN THE
On January 1st, Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie’s LOST GIRLS will finally be released in the United Kingdom and European Union. FAIR WARNING: Get your copies quick, as the limited supply will most likely disappear within a few weeks.
“For more than a century, Alice, Wendy and Dorothy have been our guides through the Wonderland, Neverland and Land of Oz of our childhoods. Now like us, these three lost girls have grown up and are ready to guide us again, this time through the realms of our sexual awakening and fulfillment. Through their familiar fairytales they share with us their most intimate revelations of desire in its many forms, revelations that shine out radiantly through the dark clouds of war gathering around a luxury Austrian hotel. Drawing on the rich heritage of erotica, Lost Girls is the rediscovery of the power of ecstatic writing and art in a sublime union that only the medium of comics can achieve. Exquisite, thoughtful, and human, Lost Girls is a work of breathtaking scope that challenges the very notion of art fettered by convention.
This is erotic fiction at its finest.Even fancier than DC’s Absolute editions of Watchmen and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Lost Girls is packaged as three, 112-page, super-deluxe, ovesized hardcover volumes, all sealed in a gorgeous slipcase. “
Truly an edition for the ages.LOST GIRLS Cover and Preview Pages Here:
