 The Austin Chronicle Books: Review - A Duo From Drawn and Quarterly
Drawn and Quarterly, the independent comics company responsible for some of the most artful and literary graphic volumes in the world, has been lying doggo for a while.
This, the third in Drawn & Quarterly's series of yearly anthologies, requires no interest in a particular country, no pre-established appreciation of comics as an art form, no conditions at all.
Even more than its previous incarnations, this year's Showcase will appeal to anyone with a heart and a mind, tweaking nodes of intellectual pleasure even as it floods the emotional cortex with a mulligatawny of subtle, blatant, and – yes – contradictory feelings.

 Amazon.com: Drawn & Quarterly Showcase: Book One: Books: Kevin Huizenga,Nicolas Robel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
For this first volume in Drawn and Quarterly's ambitious program to spotlight young talent in a long-form showcase, the artists each use a different two-color palette and tell stories linked by their emphasis on the visual poetry possible in comics.
Giving young artists space to stretch out and develop in book form is necessary, and by taking a chance on new talent, Drawn and Quarterly again proves it's one of today's most adventurous and important comics publishers.
Alternative-comics publisher Drawn & Quarterly's flagship title has been the annual bearing its name and spotlighting leading alternative-comics artists throughout the world.

 Drawn & Quarterly Showcase: Book One
Published by independent comics stalwart, Drawn and Quarterly Publications, this first issue was originally intended to feature three tales.
To the extent, however, that the work can be said to provide readers with intellectual and creative tools to further develop their abilities to form constructive relationships with these multiplicities, Huizenga's work stands alone.
All in all, this premier issue of Drawn and Quarterly Showcase, despite the lack of the initially expected work of Anders Nilsen, is a very promising start for what we can only hope will be a long running series.

 TIME.com -- Andrew Arnold: The Year of the Anthology
Drawn and Quarterly and Fantagraphics both began publishing a series dedicated to showcasing new talent with "Drawn and Quarterly Showcase" and "Blood Orange," respectively.
In August Alternative Comics published a follow up to its outstanding 2003 anthology, "Rosetta." Best of all, "McSweeny's #13," arguably the finest comix anthology ever published, set a new standard for the form (see TIME.comix review.) Now, in the last month, two more anthologies have arrived, each with their own special qualities.
Drawn with a simple clarity, it brilliantly updates one of Kate Chopin's devastating portraits of a caustic marriage hidden behind a veneer of politeness and misguided obligation.

 Seth (cartoonist) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seth's first published comics work was as an illustrator on the Vortex Comics series Mister X, but he soon moved to his own series, Palookaville (published by Drawn and Quarterly), which was part of a miniature boom in non-genre alternative comics from Canada in the 1990s.
Seth, Chester Brown, and Joe Matt not only also began their own semi-autobiographical series at the same time, but were friends and sometimes depicted each other in their stories.
His artwork has landed on the cover of The New Yorker twice, which he said was a professional milestone he was happy to achieve.
