Synopsis:
D&Q publisher Chris Oliveros was so impressed by the work of these three young artists that he commissioned each of them to write and draw original illustrated short stories for this new book. Kevin Huizenga, Anders Nilson, and Nicolas Robel represent some of the brightest new talents in comics today. This series will be an annual showcase of up-and-coming cartoonists and it will compliment D&Q's successful eponymous flagship anthology as a sort of "Drawn & Quarterly jr." This is comics pushing all the boundaries; surreal, edgy stories of wonder that shimmer with visual style and raw emotional power and it is presented here in a deluxe package to introduce them to new fans of illustrated fiction.
About the Author: The authors are an international assortment of young men bound together by a pledge to fight boring books: Kevin Huizenga lives in St. Louis and has been writing and drawing his mini-comic Super Monster since 1996. Chicago-based Anders Nilson writes and draws Asomatognosia Comics. Nicolas Robel lives in Geneva, Switzerland and is the founder of the innovative publishing company Bulb Grafix. His first story in English was published in Drawn & Quarterly Volume 4 in 2001.
