SEX #1-34 (Joe Casey / Piotr Kowalski)

La série Sex sera dorénavant publiée sous la forme de « romans graphiques ». Le scénariste Joe Casey s’en explique à la fin du 34ème numéro paru ce mercredi :

[quote]*In consultation with Image Comics publisher, Eric Stephenson, we’re going to attempt a bold experiment, one that few continuing series have ever attempted. We’re going to transition from the monthly comicbook format to a strictly graphic novel format.

On several different occasions in the past year or so, I’ve come to realize that this is probably the final, long-form, serialized, creator-owned comicbook that I’ll ever write. The market is such that, unless you’re some sort of runaway success right out of the gate, maintaining this kind of a narrative over years and years — in the monthly comicbook format — can be a tough row to hoe. The market may be relatively healthy at the upper sales levels, but it certainly isn’t the kind of trickle-down economy we’d all like for it to be. But for a storyteller that wants to continue to tell
stories, the obvious solution is to pivot to a new kind of method, a new frame of reference, a new delivery system with which to tell those stories. That’s basically what we’re going to be doing… and I hope you’re all as juiced by the possibilities as I am.*[/quote]
