MONSTERS -- A
graphic novel by Barry Windsor-Smith.
The
story explores the life and times of two disparate American families
fatefully
connected by an abandoned Nazi project in genetic engineering
that
has been covertly revived by the US government. Told in a non-linear
timeline
spanning twenty years following the end of the Second World
War,
MONSTERS depicts
the conflicts and intimacies of a diverse cast
of
characters
whose
lives are destroyed by a malignant legacy
from
the
Third
Reich’s
misguided
quest for the perfection of mankind.
A
testament to the potential of accomplished graphic storytelling, the complex
and
compelling tale of MONSTERS unfolds
through the nuanced, naturalistic
dialog
and drawings of master writer and artist Barry
Windsor-Smith.
MONSTERS is a work in progress, currently totalling nearly 300 pages.
Publication
information will be posted, as it becomes available, in
