all that was available from Graham prior to Escalator is a bunch of porn comics from NBM (Perverts of the Unknown is probably still available from NBM; and yes, that title is a riff of Challengers of the Unknown - it's that rare thing, a witty, clever, humorous porn comic...no, seriously), various guest appearances in equally rare and hard-to-find issues of MEATHAUS, the comics collective where James Jean, Dash Shaw, Farel Dalrymple, Tomer Hankuna and many other had their first (self-published) comics work... and Brandon also had a few stories in 2 issues of Heavy Metal years back, I think.
He also did 2 issues of a 3-issue mini called Universe So Big for Radio Comics (equally rare and hard to find since it had such an almost nonexistent print run), and Radio never published the 3rd issue due to low sales (well, Radio Comics barely made any money on ANY of their titles as it is). Brandon said he's shopping the idea of a collective, nice shiny new paperback of Universe So Big to Oni and to TokyoPop, and it sounds like Oni may give him a better deal so he'll probably go with Oni. But it's still not an instant sell, this paperback I speak of... the series is terrific, though, and worth bringing to the public eye in a reprint. Formative and quality Graham stuff. I think it will eventually get the trade paperback treatment, just could take a year or so. |
