Uamou - Bastard (Clear Rainbow)

Hardcover, 64 pages, 8.75 x 12 inches.

This edition includes a signed bookplate by Felicia Chiao!

Written by Everything Everywhere All at Once director Daniel Kwan, 24 Minutes to Bedtime! brings the multiverse to the bedtime story, illustrated by the wonderfully talented Felicia Chiao, one of Giant Robot's absolute favorites.

Illustrated by Felicia Chiao, the story follows Winston, who invents a time machine that allows him to time jump around his house, narrowly avoiding his increasingly agitated parents and their efforts to brush his teeth, change his PJs, and just tuck him into bed already. Everything goes smoothly until Winston encounters alternate versions of himself in alternate timelines, forcing him to confront his choices head on.

Softcover, 376 pages, 5.3 x 7.1 inches.

A slow-motion drive-by view of a collapsing universe meant to sit in the palm of your hand 

How fast can you go in a buggy drawn by the flap of a butterfly’s wings? How do you measure the speed of waking from a dream? Such abstract inquiries into the unrelenting absurdity of contemporary life make up this omnibus of meditative vignettes from one of mainland China’s most prolific and recognizable—yet anonymous—new underground cartoonists of the current generation.

Every story in 20 km/h toes the line between pun and poetry, and lands somewhere just short of a zen koan: come back to it as often as you like, it will never quite read the same way twice. A nondescript figure awakes from an assembly line of identically-fashioned companions and boards a rowboat destined for the unknown. A man holds the key to sleep in his hand and uses it to disappear into his mattress. The moon is plucked from the sky and fed into a vending machine for a can of soda.

Woshibai’s minimalist renderings are a startlingly delightful cocktail of existential dread and silent slapstick that arrest the mind’s eye with equal parts humor and grace.

In this long-awaited conclusion to Adrian Tomine's three-part epic, the story leaps across the country, taking place entirely in New York. All of protagonist Ben Tanaka's worst (and most amusing) traits are brought to the fore as his obsessive quest reaches a fever pitch. His best friend, Alice Kim, finds herself at an unexpected crossroads in her life, forcing her to make several life-altering decisions. But whatever happened to Ben's girlfriend, Miko Hayashi? That and many other answers are revealed as our protagonists walk and talk their way through the streets of Brooklyn and Manhattan, all delineated in Tomine's evocatively pristine style.

Measures 8 x 8 inches.

From Our friend Archie

Pizza is the most beloved food in America, and likely the world. However, it often means different things to different people. When my family moved to Rhode Island (a mere 45 minutes from our home in Massachusetts), we encountered a totally bizarro form of pizza that is known only in Rhode Island: The Pizza Strip. Every single birthday, Bar Mitzvah and board meeting has these things. It's a thick piece of focaccia bread smothered with sweet and salty tomato sauce, no visible cheese and cut into strips. It's served cold, and leaves a visible residue of grease on anything it touches. Is this pizza? 7 year-old me didn't think so, but I was told it was pizza enough times that now I think it counts. There aren't many restaurants that sell this style, but every Rhode Island bakery will have some version of it. 

We included a few chain pizzas because they are so ubiquitous throughout the country that their flavor defies any other style. 

It's also a gimme, since the map itself is shaped like a pizza.
