Raw Sewage Science Fiction, Hardback Book

Raw Sewage Science Fiction Hardback

Hardback

Description

The great fine art doodler returns. Canadian treasure Marc Bell returns with another gorgeous, confounding comic that redefines how an art book can tell a story and how a graphic novel can be an object first and story second.

His internal monologue leaks out like static from a radio and informs the external; he s tying up loose ends; he s finishing long-paused sentences. Raw Sewage Science Fiction is about making art and understanding the results as autobiography.

The process is a series of indignities, bubble wrapped frames, unpaid invoices, art lost through neglect or in the mail.

Bell uses autofiction, collage, straight comix, tight cross hatching, loose doodling, repurposed in-flight magazines, envelopes, grocery lists, and snatches of late night CBC radio to examine a lost decade as he wanders from coast to coast. In a century, these will be our illuminated manuscripts, our sacred texts, our guides to life for now they are simply the truth the irritating, confounding, glorious truth.
