The series\u2019 31 issues followed McAlistaire as he walked across the untamed wilderness of what would one day\u00a0become Michigan, crossing<!--more-->\u00a0paths and sharing adventures with an ever-growing cast of both real-life and fictional characters.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Journey takes place as America recovers from the Revolution and braces for the upheaval of the War of 1812. The result is an absorbing account of life on the 19th century frontier\u00a0\u00bbsometimes fantastic, such as when McAlistaire gets a free ride on a tornado, and sometimes harshly realistic (when he gets chased by a hungry black bear). McAlistaire endures every imaginable hazard, encountering Indians, German poets, Sasquatch, and even talking spirits of the long dead.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Both written and drawn by Bill Messner-Loebs, Journey has a unique style. As one Publishers\u2019 Weekly review puts it: \u201cMessner-Loebs\u2019 laid back prose style\u2026 sounds like a yard told round the campfire and echoes aspects of American literature from the era he\u2019s evoking. \u2026The humor is dry and the artwork is evocative of Will Eisner in use of facial expression and of backgrounds that are at once stark and detailed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cI tried to give a funny, serious, realistic and surreal take on the era,\u201d according to Mr. Messner-Loebs. \u201cMy feeling was life is all those things and as a comic reflects that the reader is drawn into it. A spy story needs to be tightly plotted; a frontier saga, or my frontier saga at any rate, should have as little conventional plot as possible. Since the land beyond civilization is freeform, the story you tell should reflect that. I had homesteaded along the Canadian border in Maine for a year and I tried to get the things I had experienced there into the story. I think I got a little serious and complicated towards the end. Of course I was drawing it in hospitals, waiting for both my mother and my wife to die.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">IDW\u2019s re-presentation of this comics classic includes issues #1&Prime;16, as well as an introduction by Eisner-winning writer\/artist Sam Kieth, Messner-Loebs\u2019 partner on The Maxx. Look for Journey, Vol. 1 in stores this August.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">TPB \u2022 B&amp;W \u2022 424 pages \u2022 6.625\u201d x 10.187\u201d \u2022 $19.99 \u2022 ISBN: 978-1-60010-191-5<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">About IDW Publishing<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">IDW is an award-winning publisher of comic books, graphic novels and trade paperbacks, based in San Diego, California.
