Shipwreck #2 - "Bell"

[laughing_tree]

"I love both horror and science fiction, and Warren [Ellis] has managed to combine both of them into something that is both disturbing and rewarding in a far-ranging way. My goal is to present the images he calls for, while at the same time finding visual themes and stylistic flourishes that can underpin and echo the story's intent. As for what it's about, I've been telling people it has the flavor of The Prisoner, but with much heavier horror elements. Maybe Jacob's Ladder by way of Solaris?" -- Phil Hester

Wow. This is really good!

It is written by Ellis?? He is becoming one of my favorite writers. I really like Trees and Injection.

Yes, yes, and me too :) if you haven't, be sure to check out his older work, and subscribe to his newsletter Orbital Operations!

Warren Ellis sure likes crazy people.

Phil Hester's art is also really really good, like his crazy montages and panel layouts.

Like the surreal plotting of this series.
