Synopsis

Featuring five artists taking on ten pages each, "17x23 Showcase" is designed to give readers a chance to meet the best of the next generation of comic creators before they blow up. Published biannually, this anthology of one-off stories is the only regular publication of its kind in the United Kingdom.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

Overall, this is an excellent anthology and another notch on Nobrow’s (surely buckling) bedpost. They are, of course, experienced in putting together anthologies, but the choice to have only 5 contributors, thus allowing each story its own place and standing, and the size and format do indeed, um, showcase, the comics beautifully. Highly recommended and eagerly anticipating the next volume.
—Zainab Akhtar, The Beat

Each of the five stories here provides something of value, and Nobrow's attention to detail and quality (notwithstanding the strange reprinted pages at the back) make it an attractive package and a pleasant diversion.
—Full-Page Bleed

With work by Reuben Mwaura, Joe Kessler, Isaac Lenkiewicz, Henry McCausland, Nick Sheehy & Kyle Platts, the 17x23 Showcase follows in the lineage of the great alternative and art comics anthologies of the last 20 years, aiming to pick up the mantle of Raw, MOME, Kramer's Ergot, Zero Zero & The Drawn & Quarterly Showcase. With comics that range from funny, gross, sentimental, intelligent and every adjective in between, this anthology will surprise even the most demanding reader.
