By "any day now" Tom means that King-Cat Classix is set to be on sale in stores for May 1st, and is now available on D+Q's website. Library Journal gave this new collection from John Porcellino a starred review in its Xpress Reviews:
"This weighty collection gathers the best of the first 50 issues of King-Cat with selections of ephemera (reproductions of letters, essay, reviews, and stories) that make each issue singular. While not exhaustive, King-Cat Classix manages to display the gradual evolution of an artist, from early punk rock scratchings and disjointed ramblings through the reserved simplicity of Porcellino's later drawings. Readers will grasp the development of both a man and the practitioner of a craft... [it is] a comprehensive introduction to the work of a great living artist as well as a tribute to the foundational efforts of an icon... Highly recommended."
King-Cat Classix will be debuting at this year's Alternative Press Expo in San Francisco, April 21st - 22nd!
