Prophet


Read Brandon Graham and Simon Roy's Prophet 21 today from Image. One of the most interesting and amazing looking books I've seen in ages. Reminds me a little of Ricardo Delgado's brilliant Hieroglyph in a lot of ways, it's as much a travelogue of alien culture as it is a story. Highly recommended. It also contains an inordinate number of scenes of people eating meat hence this picture.

Very nice, love the colours. The whole things book (from what I've seen)smacks of that Moebius euro-vibe, which is great when done properly.Will definitely be taking a look at the book.

Great piece

Awesome, awesome job, man. As I was looking at that I was simultaneously drawing YET MORE SCENES of prophet eating meat, which is surreally fitting. Well done.

Thanks Simon. Clearly killing-things-and-then-eating-them is the thematic spine of this whole Prophet relaunch.
