The fifth volume of the acclaimed quarterly comics anthology. This acclaimed, reasonably priced, quarterly anthology runs approximately 120 pages per volume and spotlights a regular cast of a dozen of today's most exciting cartoonists. "Mome" is quickly earning a reputation as the premiere literary anthology in comics. Think of something like "The Believer" or "Granta"--especially in regard to iconic design, format, and content--but with comics. The fifth volume of "Mome" includes the following: Tim Hensley ("Weird Tales of the Ramones") returns for the first time since the third volume with the first-installment of his first book-length story, titled "Gropius," which tells the story of teen millionaire Wally Gropius, who will be disinherited unless he marries the saddest girl on earth; Martin Cendreda depicts a mostly wordless, surreal adventure starring three peculiar musicians, and what happens when they get together to make music; Kurt Wolfgang delivers "Nothing Eve.," a story about the day before the end of the world; David Heatley ("Deadpan, McSweeney's") contributes several short "portrait comics"; Paul Hornschemeier continues "Life with Mr. Dangerous," a full-color narrative about a young woman who struggles to define a life outside of the example her mother provides, spending far too much time watching a cartoon called "Mr. Dangerous"; Andrice Arp ("Hi-Horse") contributes another retelling of ancient Japanese fairy tales in a lovely two-color format. The issue also features an interview with Anrice Arp, conducted by Gary Groth, and new work by Anders Nilsen (in full-color), Jeffrey Brown (of "Clumsy, Big Head!," and "McSweeney's" fame), Gabrielle Bell ("Scheherazade"), Jonathan Bennett ("Esoteric Tales"), and Sophie Crumb ("Belly Button Comix").
