TOE 5.30.06 - Comix books

This week we take a trip to the Flatiron building in New York City to talk with Mark Siegel, editorial director of First Second - a new comics imprint from Holtzbrinck Publishers (one of the majors). Your Host is an unabashed comix geek and thus this new publishing venture is extremely exciting. Publishers have been trying for decades now to break into the bookstores, first second is the most impressive effort yet. give a listen. The first second website is here. Below are the six books Mark Siegel talks about in the piece (the first two are my favorites but they are all recommended).
