    • Überbordende Bilderfolgen, kinematografische Perspektiven, surreale Traumwelten im Stil des Art déco und noch nie gesehene Panelkompositionen – mit seinem Little Nemo hat der Comickünstler und Zeichentrickfilmpionier Winsor McCay Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts, als das Genre noch in seinen Kinderschuhen steckte, einen Comicklassiker geschaffen, dessen visuelle Kraft noch heute sprachlos macht, einzigartig, revolutionär, seiner Zeit um Lichtjahre voraus – „als hätte Herr Benz die Geschichte des Automobils nicht mit einer bizarren Dreiradkutsche gestartet, sondern mit einem Porsche 911“ (welt. de). Nemos turbulente Reise durch die schön-schreckliche Nacht geht auch in diesem zweiten Band weiter, der in leuchtenden Farben, exzellenter Druckqualität und im XXL-Format neue Abenteuer des Helden im Pyjama aus den Jahren 1910 bis 1927 zusammenstellt – insgesamt 329 Episoden einschließlich der legendären Luftschiffabenteuer: eine halluzinatorische Erkundungstour durch McCays einzigartigen Bilderkosmos, ein groß angelegtes „Testament der Träume“ (SZ), das in die tiefsten Tiefen des Unbewussten führt. Der in Leinen gebundene XXL-Band enthält sämtliche Episoden aus: den The-New-York-Herald-Jahren (1910/11, „Little Nemo in Slumberland“), , den William-Randolph-Hearst-Jahren (1911–1914, „In the Land of Wonderful Dreams“) und den New-York-Herald-Tribune-Jahren (1924–1927, „Little Nemo in Slumberland“)

    • From the creator of Little Nemo comes this pioneering cartoon strip, a world of dreams and nightmares, fraught with episodes of wish fulfillments and exaggerations in size and perspective. This facsimile of the rare 1905 first edition recaptures Winsor McCay's imaginative brilliance and his influence on latter-day animation with 60 cartoon sequences.
