Winsor McCay. The Complete Little Nemo 1905–1909

Nocturnal adventures
The best of Little Nemo in Slumberland

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 (1869â€“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 McCayâ€™s The Complete Little Nemo 1905-1909 collects in full, glorious color, 220 of the finest of Nemoâ€™s nocturnal escapades from the period 1905-1909. Through them, we delight not only in the splendor of Slumberland, a surreal benchmark for Robert Crumb and Federico Fellini, but also McCayâ€™s pioneering panel layout and storytelling techniques, his timing and pacing, and extraordinary architectural and other detail.

In the illustrated accompanying volume, art historian and comics expert Alexander Braun places Winsor McCayâ€™s life and work within the cultural history of the U.S. media and entertainment industry, and explores the immense art historical significance of McCayâ€™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 pioneersâ€“and one of the most intrepid explorersâ€“of comic history.
