Summaries and Reviews
Summary
A large-spread volume of the complete strips of a comic series that reflected a convergence between Texas and Japanese cultures follows its characters' self-mythologizing and over-value of the limited resources of their world, in an edition that offers insight into the creator's applications of 'ratty line' illustrations, near-Joycean wordplay, and non-sequiturs.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Dal Tokyo was a monthly comic strip, drawn in Panter’s groundbreaking “ratty line,” about a future Mars that is terra-formed by Texan and Japanese workers. In 1983 the L.A. Reader published the first 63 strips. A few years later, the Japanese reggae magazine Riddim picked up the strip, and Panter continued the saga of Dal Tokyo in installments for over a decade.
