I'm very happy that I can finally talk about this new omnibus collection of all my creator-owned comics from Dark Horse. Nerd Inferno will be a 656-page paperback companion to the Beasts of Burden Omnibus, collecting The Eltingville Club, Milk & Cheese and Dork in one monster volume. Hence, the "Essential Evan Dorkin" appellation there. Ahem.
So, if you're looking to finally nab one or all three of these out-of-print tomes, you won't have to pay crazy eBay money. Just wait a few months.
The book will hit shelves on April 21st of next year, one day after my birthday. Make this a gift to yourself, it's going to run $35, so start saving your pennies now. I hope folks will support this project and help make it successful.
The new cover is by me, with colors by Sarah Dyer. I'll be able to post about the cover process now that the announcement has been made.
