Inhaltsangabe

A washed up comic book writer must scrape together enough cash to pay off Lithuanian mobsters in this totally fictional true story that's perfect for fans of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.

Once upon a time, he and his brother birthed a worldwide phenomenon, self-publishing a crazy indie comic about crime fighting cat-girls out of their tiny apartment. Now… Books is hitting his forties (hard), the money all gone, artistic inspiration tapped out, beset on all sides… and trying to recover from his catastrophic encounter with the hit-and-run driver called “early success.” Drawing Blood follows a cartoonist whose real life has become more absurd and action-packed than any comic book story he could dream up!

This trade collects all four issues of the first volume of DRAWING BLOOD, and as an added bonus, the origin issue of Books’ creation, the RADICALLY REARRANGED RONIN RAGDOLLS! Straight from 1992, it’s the first adventure of America’s favorite ferocious felines! 122 pages of comic stories, plus additional behind-the-scenes extras showing the evolution of the project.

From the bestselling mind of TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES co-creator KEVIN EASTMAN comes the totally fictional true story of comics creator SHANE “BOOKS” BOOKMAN, a cartoonist on the skids.

Co-created by Eastman and David Avallone (ELVIRA, BATWHEELS), scripts by Avallone, art by Ben Bishop (THE AGGREGATE, TMNT The Last Ronin,) Troy Little (RICK AND MORTY), and Kevin Eastman.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Born in Portland, Maine in 1962 Kevin Eastman began drawing at a very young age. copying children’s books and reading comics. Inspired by master storyteller Jack Kirby and later by underground comic pioneers and self-publishing creators like Richard Corben, following in their footsteps became an obsession. In 1982, while trying to sell some of his illustrations to local fanzines, he met Peter Laird in Northampton, Massachusetts, and shortly thereafter Mirage Studios was formed. A year later in the middle of a late-night drawing session, Eastman doodled a new character he dubbed a “Ninja Turtle” to make Laird laugh—several sillier sketches and a final drawing of four characters later Eastman and Laird’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were born. Self-published in May of 1984, the original comic evolved into a global success and forty years later remains popular with fans of the comics, toys, TV series, and animated films. When not having way too much fun writing and drawing on a variety of TMNT projects, new creator owned projects such as Drawing Blood and The Radically Rearranged Ronin Ragdolls, to name a few, are taking center stage. Kevin Eastman currently resides in California with his wonderful wife Courtney, awesome son Shane and two really bad kitties.
