Hallelujah!! I
finally got my complimentary copies of The Book of Giants! The books have made a
long journey over the seven seas, all the way from Hong Kong to the
Netherlands. Nobody knows exactly why it took it so long to reach the final destination…
I guess the treacherousness of the seven seas might be the reason…and perhaps the
carelessness of a few individuals in charge. However, my wife and I went yesterday
to Breda to always pleasant and cozy comic book store, De Stripspecialist, where an official opening of the first box
took place.
I hope you will
forgive me this lack of modesty, but I must say I was very, very pleased with
the exceptionally high quality of
printing and binding, the trademarks of the publisher, Flesk Publications. Because
I already saw an advance copy of the Trade Edition, I was particularly
impressed by a very delicate and superbly executed binding of the Deluxe
Edition. If you are a fan of beautifully produced limited edition books, this
is your chance to obtain one. This
signed Deluxe Edition of The book of Giants is limited to only 500 copies, it goes with a slipcase and contains an additional
16 pages The Book of Giants Sketchbook section. This edition can be purchased only through the
publisher.
