Critically acclaimed for its compilation of dynamic young cartoonists, this volume features the 20 page conclusion to the Jim Woodring graphic novella, "The Lute String." Previously published only in Japan, this story features Woodring's signature characters - Frank, Pupshaw, and Pushpaw - in a universe-bending saga that finds the trio in a very unexpected world of flying, shrieking demons and bulbous-faced monsters. Also features the work of Tom Kaczynski, Robert Goodin, Dash Shaw, Ray Fenwick, John Hankiewicz, Sophie Crumb, Tim Hensley, and Jonathan Bennett.
