Pop Gun War
Seriepocket. 2003. Engelska.
Mycket gott skick.
POP GUN WAR is about childhood, self-discovery, oppression, guilt, dreams, loneliness, whatever, and an inner city boy named Sinclair, who discovers a pair of discarded angel wings. With these wings, Sinclair flies around the city and gets into adventures.
In Pop Gun War, bizarre events unfold according to a dreamlike logic rather than a linear narrative, drawn in a distinctive monochrome style with occasional bursts into color. This is how writer/illustrator Dalrymple (acclaimed author Jonathan Lethem's collaborator on the minicomics series "Omega the Unknown") has chosen to depict the inevitable collision of youth and innocence with hard experience in the big city, with honorable forbears including filmmaker David Lynch and artist Jim Woodring. The trip on which Dalrymple takes readers here is demanding and not always rewarding, but it's possibly worthwhile for those who handle its blend of symbolism, non sequiturs, and abrupt twists of fate.
