Description
Celebrate 25 years of the universe created by Gorillaz star Jamie Hewlett, in the iconic style that spearheads the band's success, with this silver jubilee compilation of comics, scripts, and an assortment of behind-the-scenes material of the franchise.
For fans of the cult-classic Tank Girl, The Face magazine, and the Collector's crown jewel for unconventional crime-fighting, Jamie Hewlett and Mat Wakeham's iconic comic strips take centre stage in the deluxe edition of Phoo Action: Silver Jubilee.
The popular duo of Whitey Action and Terry Phoo are once again battling side-by-side, as the edition celebrates the 25th anniversary since the creation of the Phoo Action universe. However, the celebrations are cut short on Whitey's 18th birthday, and the protagonists are forced to combat their notorious foes 'The Freebies', who are among the mutants that have returned to the streets of Doncaster and are once again wreaking havoc. Gripping storylines ensure that new and dedicated Phoo Action fans are enthralled.
The deluxe edition is a must-have for collectors, with extra features including exclusive art cards, original scripts on specially printed paper stock, exciting gatefolds, and a sleek slipcase to present Hewlett's signature graphic novel style and Mat Wakeham's design and narrative mastery in all its intended glory. The longtime collaborators deliver a unique blend of irreverent humour, unconventional crime-fighting, and mutant mayhem. Readers gain an insight into the creative minds behind not only Phoo Action but also the cult-classic Tank Girl and groundbreaking Gorillaz projects. Learn about the elusive Hewlett, rumoured to be Banksy, and appreciate the renowned drawing style that spearheads Gorillaz's stardom.
Whether you're a Phoo Action enthusiast, Gorillaz fanatic, The Face admirer, or a collector seeking an extraordinary addition to your shelf, Phoo Action: Silver Jubilee Deluxe Edition promises an action-packed adventure and immersive experience.
