Canto Volume 1: If I Only Had a Heart - Hardcover
by David M. Booher (Author), Drew Zucker (Illustrator), Vittorio Astone (Illustrator)
A tiny clockwork hero on a quest for a heart for the one he loves, fights for freedom and hope, facing tyrannical forces in a fantastical modern fairytale.
Enslaved for generations, Canto's people once had hearts. Now they have clocks. They are forbidden to love, yet Canto loves a little tin girl. When slavers damage her clock beyond repair, Canto embarks on an incredible journey through his strange and fantastic world to bring back her heart. As he conquers fearsome creatures and finds unlikely allies, he must confront the mysterious figure who has taken their hearts to save the one he loves. Hailed as a "truly entertaining and striking modern fairy tale," (Newsarama) and a 'beautiful and heartfelt story about love and heroism," (The Brazen Bull), Canto is an adventure for past, present and future generations alike. By Eisner and GLAAD Media Award nominated writer David M. Booher (Rain, Specs, Killer Queens) and brilliant artist Drew Zucker. This high-quality hardcover reprint features brand new cover art, collects the entire first series, an expansive cover gallery, sketchbook and process section, and a new introduction by legendary Usagi Yojimbo creator Stan Sakai!Author Biography
