Little Nemo may be a diminutive hero of comic narrative but he sure
stands tall as one of the greatest voyagers of the 20th century.
The master creation of Winsor McCay (1869-1934), this small and
restless sleeper inspired generations of artists with his weekly
adventures from bed to Slumberland, a dream realm of colorful
companions, elaborate architecture, psychedelic scenery, and
thrilling adventures. Winsor McCay's Little Nemo 1905-1909
collects, in glorious full color, all 220 of Nemo's nocturnal
escapades from the period 1905 to 1909. Through them, we delight
not only in the splendor of Slumberland, a surreal benchmark for
Robert Crumb and Federico Fellini, but also McCay's pioneering
panel layout and storytelling techniques, his timing and pacing,
and extraordinary architectural detail. In the accompanying
150-page illustrated essay, art historian and comics expert
Alexander Braun places Winsor McCay's life and work within the
cultural history of the U.S. media and entertainment industry, and
explores the immense art historical significance of McCay's dream
narrative. At once an adventure story, visual delight, and piece of
cultural history, this publication is a tremendous monument to one
of the most innovative pioneers-and one of the most intrepid
explorers-of comic history.
