Craig Linton is a starving artist in the gig economy, with only a string of failed auditions and lost roles to his name. As least he earns a regular salary as a crisis actor. Playing dead for emergency-response training simulations isn't rewarding work for a serious thespian, but it's a living. His big break comes when he's recruited by the mysterious Warren Wolcott, a United States senator with no political convictions beyond his own Machiavellian schemes and nefarious agendas. What starts as a fake-news performance for the media circus soon sees Craig descending into a dangerous world of conspiracies, paranoia, and secret societies-where loyalty is assured by the threat of public exposure, and silence guaranteed by private execution. The role of a lifetime promises fame and fortune, if only he can survive long enough to enjoy the windfall.

Ein neuer Höhepunkt figürlicher Darstellung! Die Zeichnungen sämtlicher Personen dieses Comics wurden präzise nach den Qualitätsmaßstäben der großartigen Tradition viktorianischer Magazin-Illustrationen ausgeführt. Sie wurden vermittels moderner Fotokopier Technologie ein dutzend Mal verkleinert, bis eine dem Minicomic-Format angemessene Größe erreicht wurde. Die Schrift ihrerseits wurde von italienischen Mönchen auf DIN A4-große Leinwände kalligraphiert, um anschließend ebenso bis an die Grenze der Lesbarkeit verkleinert zu werden. Handlung und Dialoge gehen auf das Konto eines Lohnschreibers, der sich so etwas für den gesetzlichen Mindestlohn aus den Fingern saugt. Mit „Das lange ungelernte Leben des Roland Gethers“ wird ein Meisterwerk der 9. Kunst, das seit Jahren vergriffen war, neu aufgelegt. Ein ganzes Leben in den Zeiten der industriellen Revolution in Großbritannien, dem Ersten Weltkrieg und den Kolonialkriegen. Wer anfängt, es zu lesen, wird nicht mehr aufhören können.

You can't keep a good necromancer down. Rip Eulogy is dead. After being reduced to ashes and buried at sea, the road back to the land of the living is a long and arduous one. Since his demise, things have changed, friends and associates have moved on, and the business of communing with the dead for fun and profit has gotten a lot more complicated with the appearance of another necromancer. This rival is obscenely rich, incredibly powerful, and purely evil. He doesn't care to have a small-time upstart like Rip Eulogy competing with him for the title of Death Incarnate in the coming apocalypse. One of them has to go! And Rip soon finds out he may not be as indestructible as he thought. In this epic sequel to Necropolis, the underworld landscape vastly expands, introducing new allies, new villains, and a host of creeping, crawling denizens of the deep that are always good for a laugh or a scare. Join Rip Eulogy in this city of the damned as he tries to beat back the sinister forces bent on putting an end to him and all life on earth!
