DescriptionTokyo Ghost # 10 August 31 2016"Hard Frontier" Series Finale pg 2 Ink over pencil on art board Pencils & Inks: Sean Gordon Murphy (Signed lower center & right) Writer: Rick Remender Sean Murphy was an unscheduled guest at Granite Con in NH as part of the Essential Sequential team of artists. He said I resembled an old boxer art rep he once had. He also told me that DC has him locked up for a year with Batman and he is no longer doing sketches or commissions. MINISERIES FINALE The final confrontation for the future of mankind is here. It's Debbie Decay, Mother Nature's own samurai savior, vs Davey Trauma, the Living Singularity. Critically-acclaimed creators RICK REMENDER and SEAN GORDON MURPHY wrap up their tale of tech addiction, unintended consequences, and love in a world populated by the disenfranchised and isolated. Murphy and Remender's storytelling is fluid, amazingly detailed and emotionally expressive; he lends an almost ethereal quality to the pages–in both the lurid cityscapes and in the lush Japanese wilds–while still retaining the dark, real-world grittiness this story is grounded in. Hollingsworth (colors) does a lot of that heavy lifting as well; they coalesce into a formidable team. The entire series has been a meditation on addiction, technology, violence, and co-dependence, though its never exactly subtle about any of those things (in fact, some characters scream those specific things at and about others, repeatedly). Its view of our future is both pessimistic and sadly believable, like the tech-addicted humans of WALL-E with additional (and generous) applications of Trump and pornography in equal measure. Though Image Comics is rife with dystopian-future series’ (a couple of them also written by Mr. Remender, funny enough), this one makes for a spectacularly gorgeous read, and is a series not to miss.

Yeaaaaaah crazy page! Excellent choiceIssue 10 was still on the shelf & all the pages were tucked into the back sleeve of Seans portfolio. It wasn't even listed on line. I got a really good cash price from Sean. Going to see him again at least twice this season.
