Grotesque, alluring and darkly hilarious. Bursting with color, sexuality and strangeness. Everything you want from a Dave Cooper art book and more. Oil paintings, sketches and even some old favorites from the Fantagraphics days. But mostly all new material. If you’re a Cooper fan there’s no reason not to get this book. Except the shipping from France to the US. Ugh. Still worth it!
