UNCIVILIZED BOOKS
StockID: 131225 SKU: SEP242108
From a multiple-award-winning cartoonist Noah Van Sciver comes Maple Terrace- a new autobiographical graphic novel. Based on the author's childhood- Maple Terrace unfolds a tale of big money comic-collecting craze of the early 90s as seen from the ground floor. In a time when super-heroes were oversized- adorned with massive guns- and countless pouches- comic books were currency! Young investors struggled to collect every cover gimmick under the sun-embossed-metallic ink-holographic foil-hoping they someday would pay for their college education. Brutally hilarious- Maple Terrace shines a light on the strange intersection between poverty and speculative comic book craze of the 90s.
