Product Description

Written by Jim McCann
Illustrated by Janet K. Lee
Foreword by Tim Gunn

Archaia celebrates Return of the Dapper Men’s 2011 Eisner Award for Best New Graphic Novel with this fresh printing (the first printing is out of stock at the distributor level), featuring new extras like the exclusive reprinting of the two Dapper Men stories from Free Comic Book Day 2011 and 2012, as well as never-before-seen artwork from Janet K. Lee. This stunning hardcover is the perfect gift for fans of the Dapper Men universe new and old, and leads into the forthcoming sequel Time of the Dapper Men!

Welcome to Anorev, a world in between time, where children have played so long it’s almost become work, machines have worked so long they have begun to play and all the clocks have stopped at the same time. This is how this land has remained, until 314 dapper-looking gentlemen rain down from the sky and set off in different directions to start the world again. Now Ayden, the only boy to still ask questions; Zoe, the robot girl all other machines hold dear; and the Dapper Man known only as “41” must discover what happened that made time stop, understand what their true places are in this world, and learn what “tomorrow” really means. The sun is setting for the first time in memory, and once that happens, everything changes.

Welcome to Anorev, a world in between time, where children have played so long it's almost become work, machines have worked so long they have begun to play and all the clocks have stopped at the same time. It's a stagnate land of no change and deep division where only one human boy- Ayden, the boy who still questions, and one robot girl- Zoe, the robot whom all others protect and believe to be special, are the only ones who interact. All of this changes, however, when 314 identical looking dapper men rain down from the sky, bringing time back with them.There is one among these Dapper Men who finds Ayden and Zoe and together the three of them set about changing the world. They must discover what made time stop, understand what their true places are in this world, and learn what "tomorrow" really means. The sun is setting for the first time in memory, and once that happens, everything changes.RETURN OF THE DAPPER MEN is a visually stunning fairy tale that combines steampunk with fantasy and science fiction with Renaissance style, brought to life from the minds of award-winning playwright and comic book writer Jim McCann (HAWKEYE & MOCKINGBIRD) and critically acclaimed visual artist Janet Lee. Together these two have created a world where J.M. Barrie, Lewis Carroll and Maurice Sendak meet Jim Henson and Tim Burton. All sharply dressed in a pin-stripe suit and a dapper bowler hat.Tick tock, time is about to start.
