Inhaltsangabe

"V for Vendetta writer Alan Moore and artist David Lloyd are throwing their support behind the growing Occupy Comics project along with Madman's Mike Allred and American Splendor's Dean Haspiel. Their support for Occupy Comics is another worthy piece of the 99 percent's overdue payback." - Wired

"Regardless how you feel about the Occupy Movement, you'll find worthwhile stuff in this comic... great art, interesting history." - IGN

"An unforgettable statement from the comics community." - Bleeding Cool

The largest, most star-studded coalition of socially-conscious creators in the history of comics is now a book - and it's already a modern classic.

Occupy Comics has inspired, shocked, enlightened, and provoked with its chorus of diverse voices. Featuring an all-star team of comic book legends while also debuting some of the hottest new creators around, Occupy Comics will stand the test of time.

This deluxe book collects the Occupy Comics comic book series, launched in the early days of Occupy Wall Street to provide a forum for artistic expression about the goals and themes of the Occupy movement, create a time capsule of the protests, and raise funds to support the protesters (all profits are donated to Occupy-related initiatives).

Collected book contains a 10-page, previously unreleased story by Amanda Palmer (Dresden Dolls) and David Mack (Kabuki, Daredevil).

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

An Amazon and NY Times bestselling level author, Matteo Pizzolo was named Wired Magazine's "World's Most Wired Comics Creator" and has appeared on CNN, NPR, and FOX News. While living out of a backpack as a teenager in NYC’s Lower East Side, Pizzolo got his start as a playwright in Hell’s Kitchen’s Ensemble Studio Theatre's Youngblood program. At 19 he wrote THREAT, an independent feature set in NYC's hardcore punk & underground hip hop scenes. He went on to direct the film, shooting it on 16mm discarded “short ends” using free equipment rentals earned by cleaning up after classes at non-profit co-op Film/Video Arts. THREAT was eventually distributed by Sony (after touring skateparks and hip hop clubs across the US and Europe), garnering a Best First Time Filmmaker award at the Rome Independent Film Festival, Grand Prize at the Lausanne International Film Festival, and a theatrical release following its US premiere at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival. He then wrote and directed the animated feature GODKILLER, distributed by Warner Brothers, which led to writing the comic books YOUNG TERRORISTS and CALEXIT. Since then, THREAT enabled him to support emerging filmmakers with Halo-8, GODKILLER enabled him to focus on new creator development with Black Mask, and most recently CALEXIT made it possible for him to support first-time political candidates and also to bring new voices into TV. Pizzolo lives in Los Angeles writing and producing television, comics, and film.
