Arriving this fall, Dark Horse Books presents Eric Drooker’s long-awaited third original graphic novel, Naked City: A Graphic Novel. New York Times Editor’s Choice creator Eric Drooker brought comic book fans into an entirely new world with his award-winning Flood and Blood Song, and now expands on these with a new epic meditation on art and life. Blood Song is soon to be a major motion picture, and longtime fans or new readers alike can now explore the story-in-pictures style of Drooker’s expressionist, politically conscious storytelling in a new volume.
In this long-awaited graphic comedy from celebrated New Yorker cover artist, Drooker, three bohemians struggle to answer the question: “Is it possible for an artist to survive in the 21st Century?” A young singer poses for a painter who has shifted from landscapes to nudes, and both of them learn a thing or two about the purpose of art and the meaning of success. The original graphic novel Naked City takes us inside the head of native New York artist, Eric Drooker.
Naked City: A Graphic Novel will arrive in hardcover (6.25″ x 8.75″, 336 pages) on bookstore shelves October 8, 2024 and comic shops October 9, 2024. Pre-order at your local comic shop, bookstore, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble for $29.99.
