The Elephantmen series from Image Comics is my favorite "Indie" book. Extremely difficult to collect the monthlies (outside of Cali or London), Richard Starkings weaves a masterful tale following the lives of several Elephantmen.
They are genetic animal-human hybrids created by a "mad" scientist for Central Africa's nations, and brainwashed into expert killers. Used in the war between Africa & China, fighting in disease-ravaged Europe, ultimately rescued by the United Nations, and now rehabilitated & living among humanity....the Elephantmen are controversial and feared.
The artwork is stunning, beautiful and breath-taking! Artists like Moritat, Ladronn, Marian Churchland, & Boo Cook have contributed some of the most admirable comic book art outside of The Flash.
An awesome title featuring some of the best art & writing in the industry.....Elephantmen is one of those hidden treasures that must be revealed!!
