Omschrijving

UK In a Bad Way And Other Stories is the long-awaited first collection of comics by award-winning writer/artist James Harvey (Masterplasty, Doom Patrol, Phoo Action and Lifehouse for comics, Love Death + Robots and Metal Gear Solid for screens). The collection includes his graphic novella UK In a Bad Way (a riot of punk energy and razor-sharp satire), Luigi Mode (a prophetic dystopian farce), and Masterplasty, his scabrous sci-fi debut that tears apart the world of cosmetic self-perfection and self-destruction. The other stories go even harder-- expect sex, rebellion, and corrosive social commentary. Do not get caught reading this in public unless you want people to think you're cool. Backup strip by Brandon Graham. Foreword by Italian comics legend Igort.

Praise for the stories in this volume:

ON UK IN A BAD WAY: "I loved it... gorgeous, inventive & strange." - Paul Pope
Batman Year 100, Heavy Liquid, Battling Boy

"As if Jamie Hewlett and Simon Hanselmann met Chris Ware at a swingers party." - comicfreaks.es

ON MOUTH BABY: "I am continually excited about James Harvey... we've already seen great things, but I feel he's only scratched the surface"

Gerard Way
My Chemical Romance, Doom Patrol, Umbrella Academy

ON MASTERPLASTY: "Masterplasty is a modern classic." - Ronald Wimberly
Prince of Cats, LAAB, She-Hulk

"James' mad drawing skills blow everyone away as usual." - Kate Beaton
Hark! A Vagrant, Ducks: Two Years In the Oil Sands

"Socially conscious and with a biting sense of humour--get lost in the imagination of one of the industry's most promising up-and-coming creators" - The Onion A.V. Club

ON LITTLE NEMO ON 23RD STREET: "A fine piece of work... Winsor McCay and Steve Moore would have loved it as much as I did"
Alan Moore
Watchmen, V for Vendetta, From Hell, The Great When

"James makes damn good comics" - Brandon Graham
King City, Multiple Warheads, Rain Like Hammers, Moonray

ON LUIGI MODE: "Like a Shintaro Kago premise evolved into a 2000AD Saga... forget Before Christ and After Death. We should mark comics history with before and after Luigi Mode." - Tito W. James, comicbook.com

"I have unholy love for James Harvey... his work is an intersection between comicbooks, animation, manga, zines, contemporary art, fashion design, and graphic design... there is absolutely nothing, nothing else like it anywhere right now." - Ganzeer

The Solar Grid, Walls of Freedom, Arabesque
