About the Book

Hailed in Europe, Guido Buzzelli has been called "the Michaelangelo of monsters," "the Goya of comics," and "the patron saint of all Italian cartoonists." A pioneer active from the 1950s-1980s, today virtually unknown in English, Buzzelli horrifies, fascinates, and provokes with his unique blend of surrealism and dynamism. Displaying a range of influences from Westerns and science fiction to Rennaisance art and futurism, Buzzelli's stories are a delightful, quasi-postmodern mishmash of high and low, showing an intricate hand and stylish narrative skill. The first of three volumes collecting Guido Buzzelli's stories in English for the first time, includes The Labyrinth and Zil Zelub, two of the earliest Italian avant-garde graphic novels ever published. These fantastic and grotesque stories are the perfect introduction to Buzzelli's work. Nominated for a 2024 Ignatz award for Best Collected Edition. Translated by Jamie Richards. Introduction by Domingos Isabelinho.

Review :
"The first self-conscious author in comics." – Domingos Isabelinho "A cornerstone of Italian auteur comics." – Fabio Donalisio "Buzzelli's work manages to vividly convey the visionary energy and the unmistakable style of those roaring and extraordinary years in which it was made." – Emanuele Trevi "Buzzelli is a grand master of comics, whose art is equally effective and powerful both in his realistic representations and in his grotesque caricatures." – Alias cultural supplement of Il manifesto "Pungent, defiant, derisive; Buzzelli's art is loaded with a grotesque strength and shows a decadent and vulgar world." – Robinson, cultural supplement of La Repubblica "A gorgeous bit of primo Italian pulp-against-pulp, frenetic and propulsive and a joy from start to finish." – Hagai Palevsky, The Comics Journal
