Inhaltsangabe

"It’s an eye-popping show." —Publishers Weekly

"A visually ambitious, thematically daring, and powerfully unsettling supernatural romance that veers into incendiary social critique." —Library Journal

A gripping and provocative graphic novel that takes a hard look at sex and violence, and the very different ways we obsessively watch both.

Hundreds of years in the future, New York City is haunted by many ghosts, including a voyeuristic woman who died in our present day and a mysterious gun-toting man from the distant past. Normally solo travelers, these two specters meet and travel around the world together, bearing witness to society's forward march toward decay.

Readers won't be able to look away as they watch with dark fascination how SPECTATORS explores the fine line between living and watching others live. Explicitly sexy and shockingly violent, this lavishly hand-painted epic is a thought-provoking, metaphysical masterpiece and the most ambitious collaboration yet between Pride of Baghdad artist Niko Henrichon and Saga writer Brian K. Vaughan.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Brian K. Vaughan is the Eisner and Hugo Award-winning writer/co-creator of multiple critically acclaimed series including Saga, Paper Girls, and Y: The Last Man, as well as the upcoming graphic novel Spectators with artist Niko Henrichon, who he last collaborated with on Pride of Baghdad. Vaughan lives with his family in Los Angeles, where he occasionally dabbles in film and television, though he’s always happiest making comics.

Niko Henrichon is a French-Canadian comic book artist perhaps most known for his work on the Pride of Baghdad original graphic novel, written by Brian K. Vaughan. Henrichon has worked for several American companies, but also for publishers in France. He contributed to various comics like Doctor Strange, New Mutants, X-men, Spider-Man, Marvel Knights, and Fables. His work on the Meet the Skrulls comic book mini series was used to create the recent Secret Invasion Marvel TV show.

In Europe, he illustrated Noé, an adaptation of the Biblical tale by cult director Darren Aronofsky and Ari Handel. He also worked on 2 albums from the Metabaron universe with Humanoids Editions from a script by Alejandro Jodorowsky and Jerry Frissen. Lately, he illustrated the first album of the series Fang with American writer Joe Kelly.

Henrichon has a new, original graphic novel, Spectators, an audacious NSFW story (available to read on the Substack platform) with long-time collaborator Brian K. Vaughan, and which is published in a print hardcover edition by Image Comics. The pair's 20th Anniversary hardcover edition of Pride of Baghdad will hit shelves from Image this Fall.
