HAPPY HOUR IN AMERICA (2017)

This stand-alone comic book from master of Americana Tim Lane, who wields a brush as effortlessly as Hank Williams strummed a guitar, features three fictional short stories that explore and unpack an icon of the mythological American male, Steve McQueen. Lane's exquisite skill as a comic book illustrator echoes such legendary names as Wood, Frazetta, Raymond, and others.

"Inspired by classic comic books of the Golden Age, Happy Hour in America is Tim Lane's debut indie comic, his epic exploration of 'The Great American Mythological Drama.' You'll find selections from his forthcoming graphic novels Just Like Steve McQueen and The Assassination of Billy Lyons by That Bad Man, Stagger Lee, along with many other strange, and fascinating tales from Galaxy America! In this first issue are three stories interpreting the life of the actor, Steve McQueen, and a wraparound cover illustrating a high point in the Stagger Lee legend! "
