Fresh printing of the powerful story from J.M. DeMatteis and Glenn Barr now with new cover art

The critically acclaimed graphic novel from J.M. DeMatteis (Moonshadow, Girl in the Bay) and Glenn Barr (Hellboy Junior, Seekers into the Mystery), Brooklyn Dreams returns to print with Dark Horse Comics. Readers can complete their collection with the highly sought-after, hilarious, and mysterious semi-memoir by DeMatteis with a powerful new cover from Barr. This edition includes an all-new introduction from DeMatteis, along with a breathtaking sketchbook section, DeMatteis’s early notes about the series, and other enlightening extras.

Vincent Carl Santini wants to tell you a story about his senior year in high school, but memory is a tricky thing. A single story becomes a hilarious, heartfelt, and occasionally harrowing journey through all of Santini’s childhood. Growing up in 1960’s and 70’s Brooklyn, J.M. DeMatteis and Glenn Barr’s Brooklyn Dreams is a nostalgic visit to a very specific time and place, with a universal search for hope and meaning.
