Galley Friend Mike Russell has a new CulturePulp out that’s a comic-adaptation of his giant, sprawling interview with Steve Lieber. I recommend both, highly.
For those who don’t know Lieber, he did the art (and lettering) for the comic Whiteout, which is in my top-10 books, all-time. (And recently turned into what looks to be a sub-par movie outing, but well worth your $11 for a copy of the original book.) Whiteout is a noir thriller set in Antarctica where a U.S. Marshall finds herself leading a murder investigation, and to say more would be telling. It’s crazy, crazy good, the type of comic that even non-comics fans will love.
Lieber’s art is just breathtaking. Perfectly pitched, beautiful. You’ll think about it for a long time.
