MysteriousPress.com/Open Road, 2013. Soft cover. Near Fine. 228 pages. Book is clean with white pages and a square, tight binding. Archie Goodwin and Saul Panzer have ventured into the wilds of northern Manhattan to watch the Giants take on the Dodgers at the Polo Grounds. The national anthem is just winding down when Panzer spies a notable in the box seats: state senator Orson Milbank, a silver-haired scoundrel with enemies in every corner of upstate New York. In the fourth inning, a monstrous line drive brings every fan in the grandstand to his feet-every fan save for one silver-haired senator, who has been shot dead by a sniper in the upper deck. Archie's employer-the rotund genius Nero Wolfe-has no interest in investigating the stadium slaying, but Archie is swayed by the senator's suspiciously lovely widow. Her husband was mired hip-deep in corruption, and sorting out who killed him will be a task far less pleasant than an afternoon at the ball park., MysteriousPress.com/Open Road, 2013, 4, Paperback / softback.

Trade paperback, New, 350 pp. Cover artwork by: Ed Pinsent Goofy British comics. "Goofy" is a tribute and a compliment. Oversize format and, with 350 pages, priced affordably. "The far-reaching visionary art and surreal stories of Ed Pinsent have been a central part of British small press comics since the 80s, epitomizing a form of personal artistic creation that lies outside the mainstream in just about every way. The scope of these tales is vast, influenced as much by Calvino and Borges and other classical and modern literary traditions as by the history of comics. This book collects 44 of Pinsent's works into a massive compendium, personally selected and scanned by the artist. Half of the book is devoted to his most famous character, the rotund intellectual and spiritual adventurer Windy Wilberforce. These range from the early piece 'In the Land of the Jackanapes' to what may be the most spectacular work of all, 'The Saga of the Scroll' - long out of print and available for the first time in this larger format.", Eibonvale Press, 2010, 6, Great Britian, England, UK.: Hodder & Stoughton., 1983.
