PULPHOPE by Paul Pope
|
"You need this book. It is Pure. It manages to be a complete statement and a work in progress all at once: a report from the borders of comics, Paul Pope's view of the territory before he plunges on into the bush, hacking his way through the dark in pursuit of the new and the beautiful. It's a million pages long and it's going to take me years to understand it all. And that's what I want from a book. And so do you. So buy it."
- Warren Ellis, graphic novelist - author - journalist - screenwriter
PULPHOPE
the Art of Paul Pope by Paul Pope. Published by AdHouse Books
PULPHOPE collects the art of Paul Pope... from manga to erotica to rock posters. This is his artistic manifesto. In America, Paul's been called the "Comics Destroyer". In France, he's been called the "Jim Morrison of comics" and "Comics' Petit Prince". His work is translated into a number of languages on three continents. He's one of a handful of young cartoonists to be consistently gaining critical praise and media attention, appearing on the Sci-Fi Channel, Much Music, and elsewhere. He's been in everything from Spin to A+F to Entertainment Weekly to Jalouse to V Magazine to The Village Voice. And he's the only American cartoonist to have worked for Japan's largest manga publisher (Kodansha) for five-plus years.
