Our Sentence is Up - Seeing Grant Morrison's The Invisibles (Paperback): Kevin Colden Our Sentence is Up - Seeing Grant Morrison's The Invisibles (Paperback)
Kevin Colden; Introduction by Timothy Callahan; Grant Morrison
R593 Discovery Miles 5 930 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Grant Morrison's THE INVISIBLES has been hailed as an ambitious comics masterpiece, the key to Morrison's entire body of work, and the inspiration for THE MATRIX. But it's also frequently written off as incomprehensible. Using a conversational, accessible style, Patrick Meaney (director of GRANT MORRISON: TALKING WITH GODS) opens up THE INVISIBLES through in-depth analysis that makes sense of the series's complicated ideas, fractured chronology, and delirious blend of fiction and reality. Meaney also explores how the series's fictional conspiracy theories fare in the wake of 9/11 and the War on Terror. The book includes an extensive interview with Grant Morrison and an introduction by Timothy Callahan (author of GRANT MORRISON: THE EARLY YEARS). From Sequart Research & Literacy Organization.

R461 Discovery Miles 4 610 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This definitive, unauthorized study of Christopher Nolan's landmark 2005 film demonstrates how BATMAN BEGINS adapted and fused a half century of comic books into a single, unified movie. This book also examines past attempts to film Batman's origins, how those origins evolved over time, and where Nolan's realism falls on a spectrum with past Batman movies and even the 1960s TV show. Dr. Julian Darius manages to reveal secrets to even the most hardcore Batman fan, while remaining fully accessible to those new to the character. From Sequart Research & Literacy Organization.

Curing the Postmodern Blues - Reading Grant Morrison and Chris Weston's The Filth in the 21st Century (Paperback): Kevin... Curing the Postmodern Blues - Reading Grant Morrison and Chris Weston's The Filth in the 21st Century (Paperback)
Kevin Colden; Grant Morrison, Chris Weston
R386 Discovery Miles 3 860 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Published in 2002-2003, Grant Morrison and Chris Weston's THE FILTH is disgusting, deeply disturbing, and a comic-book masterpiece that inoculates readers against the problems of the postmodern condition. So says Tom Shapira, who also explores THE FILTH's relationship to Morrison's THE INVISIBLES, to the 1999 film THE MATRIX, and to the work of Alan Moore. The book also includes interviews with Grant Morrison, Chris Weston, and inker Gary Erskine, plus art from Weston illuminating the design of the series and containing imagery censored in the printed comic.

Grant Morrison - The Early Years (Paperback, 3rd ed.): Jason Aaron Grant Morrison - The Early Years (Paperback, 3rd ed.)
Jason Aaron; Grant Morrison; Illustrated by Kevin Colden
R486 Discovery Miles 4 860 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Grant Morrison redefined comics in the 1980s and early '90s, from his trailblazing creation of ZENITH, through his metatextual innovations in ANIMAL MAN, to his Dadaist super-heroes in DOOM PATROL. Along the way, he also addressed Batman with his multi-layered ARKHAM ASYLUM and his literary "Gothic" storyline. Callahan examines all five works in detail, drawing out their evolving themes and exploring Morrison's sometimes difficult texts in plain language. Rounding out the volume: an exclusive interview with Morrison, a foreword by popular comics writer Jason Aaron, and an appendix addressing Morrison's even earlier, shorter work.
