Art and literature historians of the future will be flabbergasted that Yokoyama existed in our time. He is a visionary on the level of William Blake. PLAZA is a parade of invention, set to the beat of turning pages. - Dash Shaw (Cryptozoo, Discipline) Bigger, bolder, and louder than ever before, neo-manga artist Yokoyama Yuichi is back with PLAZA! Inspired by Carnaval in Brazil, PLAZA offers a maniacal extravaganza of marching, dancing, leaping, firing, cheering, smashing, and exploding over the course of 225 eye-and-eardrum-confounding pages. Originally published in Japan in 2019, this oversize English edition of PLAZA brings to full, hyper-animated life the spectacular graphic art of this genre-defying work of avant-garde comics. Praise for Erik Kriek's In the Pines: Murder Ballads (2018)-- "...a beautiful and eerie collection, filled with betrayals, revenge, and exceptional visual storytelling." -- Publishers Weekly "...Kriek's work is so lyrical and innate in its study of violence and human nature..." -- Carl Doherty, Shelf Abuse "... a stylish first outing." -- Bookmunch " ...disturbing, macabre, yet beautiful and is likely to appeal to fans of shows like Twin Peaks and Hannibal which are known for blending stunning visuals with twisted storylines. [...] a gorgeous and unusual addition to your bookshelf." -- GeekMom
