Overwhelmed and alone, he finds a connection with a fellow inmate through an old, beat-up novel. In the first, a new arrival struggles to adapt to the everyday violence, physical labour, and poverty of the prison city. Sunken into the trash and debris of the past – Gameboys, iPhones, coffee cups, old cars – we follow two parallel stories. Under-Earth takes place in a subterranean landfill, hollowed out to serve as a massive improvised prison. The inmates of an extensive underground prison struggle to build meaningful lives in a broken system, in the most ambitious graphic novel to date from rising indie star Chris Gooch (Bottled and Deep Breaths).
As with Lost Soldiers, this one comes out soon, so let us know if you’d like a copy set aside for you.
I’ve not heard of Jesse Lonergan but I will certainly be picking this up. Hedra got me here with 2001, Chris Ware, and Moebius (haven’t seen Flash Gordon, sorry! That song is good, though). What she finds is beyond all explanation.Įvery once in a while, they get me with the name drops in a solicit. In a glorious exploration of the comics medium with echoes of 2001: A Space Odyssey, Flash Gordon, Chris Ware, and Moebius, a lone astronaut leaves a world ravaged by nuclear war in search of life. Since Lost Soldiers is hitting shelves so soon, make sure to let the store know if you want to grab a copy. Loving the art and can’t wait to check this out. What better to return to than a new Ales Kot miniseries? Unless I’m misremembering, Kot’s last creator-owned series was Days of Hate so it’s been a little bit. We’re back! Feels good to be writing about comics again. Three men tied by the war they left behind-on collision course with a new one.

All these apps involve creation tools, and clearly, this is so people discover the app on the content it helped make - a real advertisement.Īlthough this is just the start of apps using Snapchat as a distributor, it has the potential to send a sizable number of downloads their way - just like how Snapchat’s user base tends to pop when a particular filter goes viral.
Initial partners include Videoleap and Beatleap by Lightricks, Splice, Powder, and Piñata Farms, among others. Snap says it won’t take any sort of cut from developers, even if their app requires a purchase to use. Developers can also set up hashtag topics that’ll tag this content, so they can track how well it’s doing, and viewers can see everything made with that effect. It’s a win-win for both parties: Snapchat gains more content on its platform while developers are rewarded with additional downloads if an effect or tool they launch goes viral. At the same time, Snapchat users can browse content made on those apps and then easily navigate to download them. Today, it’s launching Creative Kit for Spotlight, which will allow app developers to give users the power to publish directly to Snapchat’s TikTok rival, Spotlight. Snapchat is making it easier for developers to use viral content to directly promote their apps.
