Around Comics Book Club - The Adventures of Luther Arkwright

Join in as Tom, Sal and Chris discuss Brian Talbot's visionary tale of parallel worlds, war, religion, violence and sex.

Synopsis:
Luther Arkwright is a work of apocalyptic science fiction set in parallel universes. The eponymous hero has the unique talent of being able to move between parallels purely by force of will, and is aided by Rose Wylde, a telepath whose many incarnations across the parallels are able to communicate with one another. Luther and Rose are agents of a parallel known as "zero-zero", whose stable position in the multiverse has allowed the development of a world at peace with itself and sufficiently high technology to monitor the parallels for signs of the malign influence of the "Disruptors".

  • In the second part of our conversation with Richard Starkings we move our focus from lettering to Hip Flask and The Elephantmen. What started as a character to help market Comicraft, Hip Flask has become the centerpiece of The Elephantmen universe. A dark and gritty look at a world where the lines between man and animal are blurred, The Elephantmen embraces the widescreen format and showcases amazing artwork with smart and unique stories. Hip Flask is a series that comes out at it's own pace. Listen in to find out why it's worth the wait. Listen Now!
