There is a great CBR article about this book called Full Color by Mark Haven Britt. The comic is 178 page story set in NYC and I think it sounds amazing.
The article (by: Andy Khouri states…
Boom is a young woman who has what you might call a “dead end” job – literally. You see, Boom’s job is just so bad and she hates her boss so much, she’s decided to give herself one day to get her whole life in order or she’s going to kill herself. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately?), on the same day, Boom’s old friend David gets himself into serious trouble with a drug dealer and needs her help. “Chaos it is, then,” David says. “We’ll need coffee.”
And thus begins “Full Color,” a mad odyssey through the streets of New York City by Xeric Grant-winning creator Mark Haven Britt.
Here is some art from the book…
In the article Britt says…
“The story is about job frustration and dealing with what you’ve made of your life. There are a lot of folks dealing with various states of change. Some are avoiding. Some are embracing it with optimism and looking forward to who they are becoming. Some are simply intent on destroying their old self.”
“Is this a story of redemption? My intent is to keep readers guessing while taking them on this ride through New York, After the ride is over, I hope folks will be asking questions and finding their own answers. Some folks think the end is optimistic and others think it’s pessimistic. I love that.”
Full Color ships July 11th from Image Comics, and I know that I’ll be picking this up. Anyone got anything they would like to say about it, leave a comment.
