Christopher Forgues DISTANT RUPTURES

€33.00
Ausverkauft

A selection of comics from 2000-2010 by CF, edited by Sammy Harkham!

Pulling from pulp, sci-fi, gag cartoons, fantasy, and thrillers, and populated by goblins, astronauts, magical thieves, and talking owls, CF’s comics break apart genres and forms, then reassemble them into one-of-a-kind stories that reveal an immense imagination and boundary-pushing talent.

Christopher Forgues (better known as CF) roared onto the indie comics scene in the early 2000s, producing some of the most exciting and influential work of the decade. His output was startlingly original and impressively prolific: his collaboration with Ben Jones, Paper Radio; his multi-part epic, Powr Mastrs; and the shorter comics and zines now collected for the first time in Distant Ruptures. These comics—created using scratchy pencil and brilliant color, smudged Xeroxes and scraps of notepaper—capture the extraordinary range of CF’s work.

Fellow cartoonist Sammy Harkham has gathered the best of them into this new collection, which also includes an introduction by Gabriel Winslow-Yost and a new interview with CF. Distant Ruptures offers readers their first chance to see the full scope of this remarkable era of CF’s comics.

  • “The decade of essential work collected in Distant Ruptures contains a lifetime of radically beautiful ideas about how comics can be formatted, drawn, and transmitted in service to funny and terrifying narratives of erotics, humor, violence, and absurdity.” - Dan Nadel
