MU is a French hardcover by Casterman, so far not translated into English. It's a fantastic book, just for the art alone. I think this was one of the last Corto stories that Pratt did. I think what I have is the 'special edition; with the first third of the book is all Pratt sketches and historical background (and perhaps a research travelogue by Pratt--I don't know as I cannot read French). The rest of the volume is the Mu story itself---I think I got very lucky on an ebay auction with this, as I did not pay close to the 200 or so this thing seems to command.

Which books are you referring to? I have access to some really good Half-Price books here in Minneapolis, including one where a pretty serious collector of comics unloads his old stuff (I haven't met him, but the staff have mentioned a couple times to me that I seem to buy about 90% of what he sells them!) A lot of my older reference stuff comes from there.
Anyway, I basically pick up anything on comics that I spot, as well as ordering new stuff off of Amazon. I am currently teaching a course on comics at the U of Minnesota. Like I said, if you tell me which volumes you have in mind, I can probably tell you where I got them.

I am pretty jealous of your Pogo collection. Fortunately for me there will be a new collection starting this year.
