Proclaiming from the visionary inventive personalities that conveyed DC's honor winning Batwoman series and introduced in an appealing even "scene design" including twofold page spreads, another mythic-fiction epic from Image Comics is ready to break your assumptions for the comic book fine art myriadly.
Composed by J. H. Williams III (Promethea, The Sandman: Overture, Batman) and W. Haden Blackman (Star Wars, Elektra), then, at that point complemented with striking craftsmanship politeness of Williams, Eisner Award winning colorist Dave Stewart (Hellboy), and expert letterer Todd Klein, Echolands #1 shows up Aug. 25 — and SYFY WIRE has an exceptional see to enjoy your faculties.
This wrapping adventure, about 10 years really taking shape, starts in an abnormal modern world that has failed to remember its own set of experiences. A crazy hooded cheat, Hope Redhood, holds the way to taking apart its dim, disrupting past—if by some stroke of good luck she and her group can get away from a domineering wizard and his merciless girl. In any case, destiny will send them all on an odd odyssey prompting an inescapable conflict between universes.
Echolands is a fast paced mashup experience that drenches perusers in everything from blood and gore film vampires to old-school mobsters and cyborg mythical beings, to Roman diving beings, cowhands, apparitions, and retro rocket ships. Notwithstanding the standard month to month issues, every part of Echolands will offer a noteworthy Raw Cut version, displaying the unadorned craftsmanship precisely as it seemed leaving Williams' work studio.
"The process for this page was an unusual choice on how to indicate location," Williams tells. "We didn't have much room to show a traditional location shot and still get the other story information into the scene without it becoming cramped. So, we opted for making the panel shapes themselves sort of become our location indication, the panels are virtually windows into the scene, featuring building construction textures and decorative elements that enhance the strange architecture of our altered San Francisco. This is all reinforced by our villain's deployed drone that moves around the page, spying in on the scene. The result is a unique presentation."
“This is one of my favorite exchanges in Issue 1 because it shows how Hope’s impetuousness launches the whole adventure that follows," Blackman tells. "It’s also a great mashup of characters, from our Cor, our Hun in biker leathers, to Dusty, the cowboy standing watch at the door."
