Publisher's Synopsis

Frank's world is already hallucinatory, but seeing him in the most technologically advanced and artistically crafted 3D ever produced is an experience that has to be savoured to be believed. This is not your dad's 3D comic where you don red and blue-lensed glasses and the drawing looks like a few layers of cardboard cut-outs. The 3D process for Frank In The 3rd Dimension involves creating over 150 layers per drawing in order to round and 'sculpt' each image into full, volumetric 3D. The results are simply staggering.

About the Publisher

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books has been a leading proponent of comics as a legitimate form of art and literature since it began publishing the critical trade magazine The Comics Journal in 1976. By the early 1980s, Fantagraphics found itself at the forefront of the burgeoning movement to establish comics as a medium as eloquent and expressive as the more established popular arts of film, literature, poetry, et al. Fantagraphics quickly established a reputation as an advocacy publisher that specialized in seeking out and publishing the kind of innovative work that traditional comics corporations who dealt almost exclusively in super-heroes and fantasy either didn?t know existed or wouldn?t touch: serious, dramatic, historical, journalistic, political, and satirical work by a new generation of alternative cartoonists as well as many artists who gained prominence as part of the seminal underground comix movement of the '60s. Fantagraphics has since gained an international reputation for its literate and audacious editorial standards and its exacting production values.
