'The Must List,' a weekly feature in Entertainment Weekly which lists 'things we love this week,' included Will Eisner's A Contact with God in the recently released January 21st issue.  The blurb says of the book, 'The late Eisner was a comic-book pioneer who all but invented the graphic novel form.  Check out his 1978 collection of moody urban tales and appreciate visual storytelling at its dazzling best.' 

 

Eisner's recent death (see 'In Memoriam:  Will Eisner') has produced a wave of publicity unequaled during his life.  The good news is that millions of potential Eisner fans are being exposed to his life and work for the first time.  Retailers can honor his life and work by helping to educate customers in their stores about his amazing body of work.
