Bryan Talbot is a rare talent in an industry that
at the moment is reaching a creative peak and, for the last 20 years,
he has been an influence on many of the industries most celebrated,
including Garth Ennis, Grant Morrison and Alan Moore.
This year marks his return to the series that brought
him to the worlds attention namely THE ADVENTURES OF LUTHER ARKWRIGHT.
Ten years in the making, this is a book that should be mentioned
in the same sentence as WATCHMEN and THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS
for it is certainly WATCHMENīs equal, and they both stand
head and shoulders above THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS.
The sequel is aptly named
HEART OF EMPIRE: THE LEGACY OF LUTHER ARKWRIGHT and again
Bryan Talbot has shown what he is capable of. The name resonates
with that of Conradīs HEART OF DARKNESS and so does the theme. It
is a tale of self-discovery, love, horror, death and ultimate salvation
and for those who have read THE ADVENTURES OF LUTHER ARKWRIGHT
as well as those who have not HEART OF EMPIRE will leave
you breathless.
PopImage proudly introduces one of the greatest
creators in the world of comics, Bryan Talbot.
