DappertasticalHUZZAH! I just got my very first original comic book page, and I couldn't be more honored to have it come from the new original graphic novel by Jim McCann and Janet Lee; "Return of The Dapper Men."
I got a pre-realese of the book at NYCC, and folks I'm decreeing nerd law that you all must go out and buy the book. Mister McCann truly weaves a magical endearing story that is only best matched with the fantastical artwork by Miss Lee. The cool thing about the art, is each page is made on its own separate piece of wood. Using the process of "decoupage" Janet draws the initial pages, and then applies cut outs of the art layer by layer to the plank of wood. The backdrop of the wood adds texture, and flavor to each page. Personally to me this revolutionary approach to comic book art engineering adds an incredible dynamic and originality to the whole story. To sum it all up, I truly feel "Return of the Dapper Men" is already an instant classic, and once officially released it should most definitely find a home on your bookshelf, because the story will for certain find a home in heart.
"The Return of the Dapper Men" page #34 is MINEEEEEEEE!
