Pure Pajamas by Marc Bell (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Pure Pajamas by Marc Bell IMMERSE YOURSELF IN THE HUMOROUS, FRENETIC WORLD OF NONSENSICAL WORDPLAY AND TALKING HOT DOGSPure Pajamas collects Marc Bells best material from his syndicated weekly comic strip for the Montreal Mirror and the Halifax Coast, as well as a host of anthologies such as Kramers Ergot, Expo, Maow Maow, and more, featuring his recurring characters Kevin, Ol Simp, Chia-Man, Mr. Socks, and Shrimpy and Paul. Throughout Pure Pajamas, Bell creates symbiotic relationships within his fantasy ecosystems, drawn in a rubbery big-foot style. Reminiscent of the sixties comics of R. Crumb but with a kind of bemused detachment in place of Crumbs ire, Bell addresses the big issues of what its like to live in todays world. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Marc Bell was born in London, Ontario, and has befuddled and bemused his readers for almost twenty years. He is the author of Stroppy, Hot Potatoe, Pure Pajamas, and Shrimpy and Paul and Friends. His comics have appeared in many Canadian weeklies, Vice, and L.A. Weekly. He is a twin. Review "Bell has a gift for incomprehensible gab, juggling a dozen language gags in complicated comic pages that, like Ulysses, could take you twenty-four hours or a lifetime to read." --LEE HENDERSON, Border Crossings on Hot Potatoe "[Bells] drawings combine the beautiful flatness of the characters in Gustin paintings and the ability to create impossible environments in three dimensions that odd characters can explore and wander around." --Vice on Hot Potatoe "Bells comics align perfectly with pop, each form attuned to capture the blips and burbles that gurgle out from our subconscious, without question and with great and unconstrained gusto. Beep beep!" --SEAN ROGERS, The Walrus on Hot Potatoe Review Quote Praise for Hot Potatoe : "Bell has a gift for incomprehensible gab, juggling a dozen language gags in complicated comic pages that, like Ulysses , could take you twenty-four hours or a lifetime to read."
