In the first graphic anthology to be produced by Nobrow, twenty-four artists take on seven pages each...to tell their tales of the creation of everything. Drawn from the mythology of myriad cultures and the ever creative minds of the artists within, we are taken from the fog of Niflheim to the frescoes of Florence in a worldwide collaboration of yarn spinning humored tales. Presented here is an exploration of a tradition in visual storytelling-without specific endorsement of any particular belief or religion-on the nature of creation. Beautiful offset printing utilized throughout featuring full-page and paneled designs from artists such as Stuart Kolakovic, Ben Newman, Mike Bertino, Brecht Vandenbroucke, and Luke Pearson. Best described as graphic short stories with accompanying minimal text. Printed in Spain. 174 pages. Insured post. "A Graphic Cosmogony is the first anthology from publishers Nobrow Press. This is a Nobrow equivalent of McSweeney's albeit with a very deliberate theme. The twenty-four artists tackle creation in a fitting seven pages each-each one becoming that shamanic presence, creating their own wild, imaginative versions to answer that perennial question: 'how did we get here? '-Forbidden Planet International "The Biblical creation myth proposes that God created the world in seven days, or six plus one day, so in that spirit the two-dozen cartoonist-shamans corralled into this compendium were given just seven pages to devise their own version of how we all got here. Entire world faiths have been built on equally unlikely accounts. Perhaps if enough readers of this volume start believing in certain stories, they might cause a spate of new religions to spring up based upon them. Pull up a rock and gather round the flickering fire the universe is about to be born again."-From the introduction by freelance journalist, curator, and lecturer Paul Gravett, co-author of Graphic Novels: Stories to Change Your Life.
