The Adventures of Luther Arkwright

Plot

Collects Adventures of Luther Arkwright (1990 Dark Horse) #1-9. "From riveting action scenes to beautiful silent sequences, from studies in hateful obsession to humor both ribald and gentle, The Adventures of Luther Arkwright is surely one of the all-time great epics of the medium. This long-overdue collection proves both Bryan Talbot's mastery of his craft and his understanding of what makes a truly great comic book: an intriguing story, characters with genuine resonance, and artwork whose illustrative excellence lies in perfect balance with clear and precise storytelling. With Luther Arkwright, Bryan shows us how it's done." "A work ambitious in both scope and complexity that still stands unique upon the comics landscape . . . stunning," says Alan Moore.
