Box Office Poison by Alex Robinson
This epic story of Sherman, Dorothy, Ed, Stephen, Jane, and Mr. Flavor is not to be missed. Alex Robinson's completely natural and inspiring knack for dialogue has made his story of dreary jobs, comic books, love, sex, messy apartments, girlfriends (and the lack thereof), undisclosed pasts, and crusty old professionals one of the most delightful and whimsical graphic novels to hit the stands in years.
Alex Robinson has been visiting, writing about and photographing Portugal for more than twenty years. His work has been published in magazines including the Sunday Times, Wanderlust, Budget Travel and Viagem e Turismo - Brazil's premier travel publication. He is the only British journalist to win Brazil's prestigious Editora Abril journalism award, is the joint recipient of a U.S National Magazine Award, a Croatian Golden Pen and a Friends of the Earth International photography award. Long delighted that he could visit the Alentejo and share its beaches, castles and fine dining restaurants only with the warm and welcoming locals, Alex decided in 2014 that he was being selfish. He wrote this book as penance. And he hopes to meet you over a glass of Adega de Borba in one of Europe's finest and most forgotten corners sometime soon.
