Publisher's Synopsis

Presented as a lovely yet inexpensive hardcover objet d'art, Mighty Mite tells the surreal and touching story of an earmite in search of a home and a lonely ape named Gabby who has fled the circus and survives on scraps of food scavenged in back alleys. The two disparate strands of the story told on opposing pages and in full-colour and b/w respectively, only come together at the very end when the reader finally learns how the fate of the two intertwine. A wonderfully unique and elegantly crafted story for all ages, this is a perfect introduction to Millionaire's work.

About the Publisher

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books has been a leading proponent of comics as a legitimate form of art and literature since it began publishing the critical trade magazine The Comics Journal in 1976. By the early 1980s, Fantagraphics found itself at the forefront of the burgeoning movement to establish comics as a medium as eloquent and expressive as the more established popular arts of film, literature, poetry, et al. Fantagraphics quickly established a reputation as an advocacy publisher that specialized in seeking out and publishing the kind of innovative work that traditional comics corporations who dealt almost exclusively in super-heroes and fantasy either didn?t know existed or wouldn?t touch: serious, dramatic, historical, journalistic, political, and satirical work by a new generation of alternative cartoonists as well as many artists who gained prominence as part of the seminal underground comix movement of the '60s. Fantagraphics has since gained an international reputation for its literate and audacious editorial standards and its exacting production values.
