This January, NBM will bring volume three of Lewis Trondheim’s amazing LITTLE NOTHINGS series, “Uneasy Happiness,” to readers. Taken from Trondheim’s illustrated blog, these comics are his musings on the everyday ironies of life, his anxieties, funny travel observations, ways of finding clouds within the brightest sunshine, his obsessive hypochondria, and many other relatable nerdy preoccupations. As Trondheim himself will tell you, it’s a whole lotta not much… and people are loving it!
“Fans of James Kolchaka’s American Elf will find he has an international soulmate in Lewis Trondheim.”- The Onion. “If this isn’t the best thing that NBM has published in its 30 years of making graphic albums available to the English-language market, it’s one of the top three.” – Tom Spurgeon, Comics Reporter.
As an added bit of excitement for comics fans, the NBM Blog (http://www.nbmpub.com/blog) is now featuring installments of LITTLE NOTHINGS twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays. Right now we’re showcasing some of the amazing strips featured in volume three, so those who check out the blog will not only see some great comics, but they’ll also view preview pages from this must-read book.
LITTLE NOTHINGS VOL. 3: 6x9, 128pp, full color trade pb with flaps, $14.95, ISBN 978-1-56163-576-4
