Publisher's Synopsis

In the 1960s and '70s, Crepax created and chronicled the adventures of Valentina, arguably the strongest and most independent female character in European comics up to that time, and legitimised the erotic genre. Fantagraphics's ambitious Complete Crepax series launched in 2016 to international acclaim, and this handsome boxed set contains our first two volumes (Crepax: Dracula, Frankenstein, and Other Horror Stories and The Time Eater and Other Stories).

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.
