![]() ![]() ![]() This is an essential gatherum by one of the most innovative multi-media storytellers on the planet! Kimota! My top tip goes to McKean’s Pictures That Tick Volume 2, which includes not only his ‘Black Holes’ docu-comic made for Comica Festival and ’s Unmasks Corruption anthology, but also the print adaptation of his acclaimed Hypercomic gallery installation ‘The Rut’ (sample spread above). Now that much is correct, as Alan was most definitely being highly ‘Original’ working on this modern superhero classic. ![]() There’s also the long-awaited reissue of Marvelman/Miracleman written by Alan Moore, repackaged ironically by Marvel and with Moore’s credit replaced by ‘The Original Writer’. My monthly PG Tips below span from the very beginnings of comics’ origins to the latest online experiments, taking in major creators like Dave McKean, Bastien Vivès and Michael Deforge, the bande dessinée source of new Korean movie Snowpiercer, and an innovative biography of Zelda Fitzgerald along the way. True, it’s a bit too early to be wishing you all a Happy New Year, but from my selections of this coming January’s releases, 2014 is going to be a Happy one for readers of great comics.
