Ahogy “öregszem” egyre inkább csak a vidéki világ érdekel. Bárhova megyek a világban, nem a nagyvárosok vonzanak, hanem a kis faluk.

Azok az igaziak.

Angel: Revelations 1 (July 2008)

Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa/Adam Pollina

In 2008, Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa - the man best known for writing and masterminding Riverdale, one of the most batshit television shows ever created - and Adam Pollina - the artist on Rise of Apocalypse, indisputably the worst comic I have read for this project in nearly a full year of doing it - teamed up to write a five-issue origin story for Angel. And it...fucking rocked?

Angel: Revelations is one of the most surprising comics I have ever read. Not surprising plot-wise: it basically rehashes Warren Worthington III's well-known backstory as a popular, privileged kid at a fancy private school who grows massive white-feathered wings, a mutation that's extremely traumatic to him while being both frightening and yet also kind of awe-inspiring to those around him. Despite the title, nothing wildly revelatory happens here: the story more or less goes as you would expect it to.

What's surprising is...everything else. Above all, it's Adam Pollina's art. Adam Pollina! This Adam Pollina!

By 2008 he hadn't worked for Marvel for about a decade, having done bits and pieces elsewhere. He then apparently come back utterly transformed, channeling the spirits of Edward Gorey, Egon Schiele and Sylvain Chomet into a series filled with twisted perspectives and long, vertical panels filled with long, vertical figures, highly distorted, highly stylized, utterly beautiful.

This is crazy, y'all. Also that evil priest is coming to kill Warren.

January sees the debut of another EC Comics five-issue miniseries that will follow the science fiction anthology Cruel Universe.

Cruel Kingdom will contain dark fantasy stories by Cullen Bunn, Al Ewing, Justin Jordan, Leomacs, Chris Condon, Dennis Culver and more, as they conjure “tales of magic, myth and murder from forbidden realms long before our own.” Adam Pollina did the cover.
