A luxury collection of comics by Rian Hughes, master illustrator and designer. Includes Grant Morrison's reworking of the classic British comics character Dan Dare, The Science Service, which allows Hughes full rein for his retro style, and Raymond Chandler's Goldfish, adapted by Tom DeHaven, in which he captures the noir shadows in a clever use of 2-colour artwork. Also in the book are Really & Truly from 2000AD and a selection of sketchbook pages. Produced in an embossed casebound edition with an introduction by comics guru Paul Gravett.
