Season two of my film blog starts next week but before then I wanted to let you guys know about this cool comic I get a sneak peak of.
...
The Mind Palace is a huge surprise. I went into reading the debut comic
by Luke Halsall, one of my guest bloggers, with low expectations and came out
actually inspired. Like I said, this comic is a surprise.
What is obvious from the get go is that this book is produced by
talented people. The first story, Tick Tock, is a masterpiece; it introduces
you to a dark and intriguing world, and before you know it, yanks you out of
it. The artwork in ‘Tick Tock’ is amazing – it brings Halsall’s distorted Alice
in Wonderland like world into beautiful life.
Once you’ve started to read ‘Defender’ you realise just how talented
Halsall is. You can tell how steeped in comic book knowledge he really is and
the joy of telling sharp and simple stories leak thorough out this piece.
And those are the real stars of this comic book, the stories. Each one
is gem which sends you deep into their own unique world.
I’d recommend anyone, whether a comic book expert or novice to give this
project a go. It may very well leave you in the same pleasant surprised state
it left me.
