Inhaltsangabe

ELEVATED HORROR!

Max, the A.I. superintendent of Maxwell Towers has found a kindred soul in one of his residents, a young, disturbed boy call Sam Bowers. Together they work to rid the building of all the ne'er do wells who lurk in the dark corridors of the block, luring them to the dreaded thirteenth floor. But this power has started to corrupt Sam, surprising even Max - and their activities have not gone unnoticed, as WPC Hester Benedict becomes more aware of the sinister events taking place at the building.

The breakout star of legendary British comic Scream! Max and his thirteenth floor are back in a brand-new story written by Guy Adams (Heavens Gate) and includes art by Frazer Irving (Batman and Robin), John Stokes (Star Wars), Tom Paterson (Sweeny Toddler), Kelley Jones (The Sandman), VV Glass (Dr Who) and Vince Locke (A History of Violence).

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Guy Adams lives with genius and writer A.K. Benedict in Rochester, Kent. He’s the author of the Heaven’s Gate trilogy of weird westerns, the Clown Service books and the Deadbeat novels. He’s written countless hours of audio drama for Big Finish, from a wide range of Doctor Who titles to an adaptation of HG Wells’ The Shape of Things to Come and the original horror series Blind Terror: The Gods of Frost. In comics he writes Rogue Trooper, Ulysses Sweet: Maniac for Hire and Max Normal for 2000 AD. With his comics husband, Jimmy Broxton, he is the co-creator of Goldtiger, the sixties newspaper strip that never existed... until now.

After a promising start to life, Keith Richardson found himself chained to Tharg’s Cosmic hamster wheel sometime in the early noughties. There he remains, collating zarjaz! 2000 AD & Treasury of British Comics collections and commissioning the odd special here and there.

Frazer Irving is without question one of 2000 AD’s brightest new stars. His distinctive style, both on co-created strips like A Love Like Blood, Necronauts and Storming Heaven, as well as on Judge Dredd, Judge Death, Future Shocks, Terror Tales, Tharg the Mighty, The Scarlet Apocrypha and Sinister Dexter, have quickly brought him to the attention of the US industry. Irving recently completed both Klarion the Witch-boy for DC Comics and Iron Man: Inevitable for Marvel comics. Amongst other things he is currently working on Gutsville with Simon Spurrier, published by Image Comics.

Scottish artist Tom Paterson was spotted at an early age by The Dandy editor Albert Barnes, who wanted to hire him for a strip called The Dangerous Dumplings which was to run in a new comic title. When the project was scrapped Paterson came to the attention of IPC, who he started to work for not long after leaving school. Inspired by George Martin, Leo Baxendale (with whom his work is most often compared) and Ken Reid, Paterson's kinetic style brought new life to Buster, Sweeny Toddler and Grimly Feendish as well as brand new creations that featured in a host of IPC titles including Oink!, Whizzer and Chips and School Fun. He moved over to DC Thomson in the 80s, taking on their lead characters Dennis the Menace, Minnie the Minx and Banana Man. Today, Tom regularly contributes to Viz comic and has been a regular on the Cor!! Buster specials.

V.V. Glass is an illustrator and cover artist who's worked with Titan, Oni Press, 2000 AD, and MTV, focussing on painterly & expressive style in comics. They're currently working on a creepy fantasy for younger readers with Boom! Studios, The Last Witch, out in 2021.

His portfolio includes countless comic books and graphic novels (including Deadworld, Sandman, A History of Violence, Junction True, American Freak, The Unwritten and Dollhouse Family), all album and merchandising art for world famous death metal band Cannibal Corpse, numerous role-playing game book illustrations (White Wolf, TSR, and Wizards of the Coast), book and magazine illustrations (2000 AD, Barnes and Noble, author Caitlin Kiernan), and artwork for the animated show Aqua Teen Hunger Force. He is also well-known for his horror themed fine art and has had paintings in many gallery exhibitions. He received the Haxtur Award for Best Long Comic Strip in 2005 for A History of Violence and was a guest speaker at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival.. Andreas Butzbach was born 1982. Today, he's a a self-taught creative working in various fields from his studio, Hangar67. Starting out as a locksmith with an urge to draw, he liked to often shake the spray-can and sharpen the pencil. In the following years he got into advertising, movies and 3D animation. The urge to draw crazy stuff never stopped, and now he is the creator of Comic titles such as: Molekei- last of the Amish and Six Cuts, writing and drawing horror strips for German magazines, Horror-Schocker and Welten des Schreckens. Since then, he's been dipping into various genres such as the Western comic, The Dude with no pants, dystopian Sci-Fi in Fantasy 3000 and most recently, prehistoric jungle adventure with, Gorrn; a love letter to barbarians and dinosaurs. Outside of Germany, Andreas has worked for Rebellion Publishing on, The Thirteenth Floor, Smash! and Monster Fun!. When not hard at work desperately trying to make sense of Guy Adams’ mind bending scripts for the new series of Hope, dabbling in the Dredd-Verse for the Judge Dredd Megazine, or willing various creator owned projects into existence by the power of thought alone (including a follow up to Goldtiger, are you reading this Adams?) the artist can be found drinking fine Hellenic beers and driving German sports cars, but not necessarily in that order. He lives in Middle England, with too many books, not enough cats.
