With Craig Thompson’s new book, Habibi, set to be released by Pantheon this fall, Top Shelf has seized the moment to offer a new hardcover edition of Thompson’s blockbuster graphic novel, Blankets, resized to the same dimensions as Habibi, with a new cover design and redrawn cover art. The new hardcover (ISBN 978-1-60309-096-4) will ship in August 2011. And for those of you out there who prefer such things, a new softcover edition (ISBN 978-1-891830-43-3) with the same redrawn cover art as the hardcover edition will ship at the same time, with a list price of about ten bucks less than the hardcover.
