MIKE PLOOG THICKER THAN BLOOD Artist Edition (FPG) Signed Numbered Slipcased

Description: A 12" x 17" book that reproduces, at actual size, Mike Ploog & Simon Bisley's masterful work for the THICKER THAN BLOOD comic series, written by Simon Reed, penciled and inked by Mike Ploog and painted by Simon Bisley. The artwork was created in 2007 and 2008. The partnering of Mike and Simon made for a truly unique collaboration, and these comics were an ideal subject matter for them.Each stunning page is published at full size for all to behold. This is an “original-art-sized edition” unlike any before it. Not only does the book reproduce the art at the original size it was created; it also represents the work of TWO artists, not just one. And, further, it covers the mediums of both black-and-white line and full-color paint, presented side by side. We thought fans of Mike and fans of Simon would genuinely appreciate viewing their art in this format.As you will see, both artists brought something very special to THICKER THAN BLOOD. Studying each page will give you a view of two artists injecting a lot of energy into each other’s work. Full advantage of this large format was taken by reproducing Mike’s graphic pen and ink pages on the left-hand page and Simon’s richly painted artwork on the right-hand page. So, each and every cover and interior page can be compared and enjoyed in both mediums; one right next to the other!Together, Ploog and Bisley created 136 interior pages and 12 covers. In actuality, this book contains six complete comics; three by Mike and three by Simon. Whether you are a fan of Mike Ploog or of Simon Bisley, OR OF BOTH, we think you will really enjoy the THICKER THAN BLOOD: Collected Artwork Edition.This is the deluxe signed and numbered and slipcased edition with a variant cover limited to 175 copies.
