Description:

Sometimes an idea is so perfect that it can't miss. Dreamtoons, collecting 109 of Jesse Reklaw's Slow Wave comic strips, is subconscious journalism at his best. Reklaw asks readers and friends to send him descriptions of their dreams, which he then renders in classic four-panel, inked comic format. From silly to terrifying to profound, each dream is summed up neatly and illustrated faithfully. The giant-chicken building gracing the cover, the bacon on the communion plate, and the class taught by death are just a few highlights from the sleeping landscapes; the artist captures them all and breaks down our barriers between "normal" reality and our dream creations. Peppered with quotes from luminaries like Marcel Proust, the book also has a few pages of dream information resources appended. Dreamtoons draws its readers into other peoples' minds and keeps them there just long enough. --Rob Lightner
