An unabashedly provocative mix of political and social satire, The K Chronicles tackles such touchy subjects as racism, violence, and sex with a self-deprecating sense of humor,<!--more-->\u00a0personal honesty and light-hearted goofiness rarely found in a newspaper comic strip. The result is accessible yet subversive, compassionate and sardonic, without being preachy. Currently out of print or rare to find, the first four volumes of The K Chronicles\u2014Dances with Sheep, What a Long Strange Strip it&rsquo;s Been, The Passion of the Keef, and Fear of Black Marker\u2014are in high demand. The Complete K Chronicles will collect these four books in a larger format\u2014keeping closer to Keith&rsquo;s original vision for the work.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cFolks have been clamoring for this collection ever since my books went out of print,\u201d says Knight \u201cThe fact that one of the best publishers in the business is doing it is the cat&rsquo;s bottom. Black Knight + Dark Horse: It makes so much sense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Keith Knight is part of a new generation of talented young African-American artists who infuse their work with urgency, edge, humor, satire, politics and race. His drawing style is fluid and dynamic\u2014evoking the spirit of Calvin and Hobbes\u2014and his great strength is the deftness of his wide-ranging wit\u2014simultaneously wild and jovial, clever and conscious. His art has appeared in various publications worldwide, including Salon.com, ESPN the Magazine, L.A. Weekly, MAD Magazine, The Funny Times and World War 3 Illustrated. Knight also won the 2007 Harvey Award and the 2006 &amp; 2007 Glyph Awards for Best Comic Strip. Three of his comix were the basis of an award-winning live-action short film, Jetzt Kommt Ein Karton, in Germany.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Keith Knight&rsquo;s comic art has appeared in museums and galleries from San Francisco (CA) to Angoul\u00eame (France).<\/p>\n<p>The Complete K Chronicles hits the streets on July 23, 2008.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ENGLISH] This
