Little Nemo: Dream Another Dream

Published by Locust Moon Press 2014

Contributing Cartoonist.

Locust Moon Press' "Little Nemo: Dream Another Dream" is a love song to Winsor McCay's signature creation, with amazing creators and an impressive massive physical format.

Over 100 of today's best cartoonists pay tribute to comics' greatest innovator, Winsor McCay, in one giant book. In this 144-page, 16" x 21" hardcover, they've dreamed up new Little Nemo in Slumberland strips, following their own voices down paths lit by McCay. A new, visually and emotionally adventurous dream on each page take will take you inside the artist's mind as much as Nemo's.Taking on the giant, broadsheet newspaper-sized canvas, artists such as Michael Allred, Paul Pope, Yuko Shimizu, J.H. Williams III, Charles Vess, David Mack, J.G. Jones, Craig Thompson, Paolo Rivera, Carla Speed McNeil, Bill Sienkiewicz, P. Craig Russell, Ronald Wimberly, Denis Kitchen, Jill Thompson, Stephen R. Bissette, Gabriel Bá & Fábio Moon, Farel Dalrymple, John Cassaday, Peter Bagge, Cliff Chiang, and many, many more have all done some of the very best work of their illustrious careers. This is a love song for Winsor McCay, Little Nemo, and the infinite possibility of comics. Winner of two EISNER AWARDS for Best Anthology and Best Publication Design, and the HARVEY AWARD for Excellence in Presentation.
