Breakdown

Ediciones La Cupula Breakdown Book. A Scorpion, a Ditch, a Roadside Motel.A briefcase full of money and a trail of blood and greed.But that´s just the beginning.Drawing on the dark arts he is known for, the Swiss Thomas Ott evokes an atmosphere as thick as pitch where pagan ceremonies, skirmishes in sewers, suicides, murders, infamous memories, bloody massacres and impossible allegories will take place.A handful of stories where the worst of fates will always be preferable to the nightmare of living.Thomas Ott (Zurich, 1966) studied Fine Arts from 1982 to 1987.Thanks to his ability to create atmospheres through his inimitable technique, he soon made a name for himself in the European underground comics scene.Ott gives his silent comics a brutally impressionistic lighting that works in perfect symbiosis with the anguished tone of what is narrated in them.His work includes Hellville, which earned him a nomination for Best Artist at the 2002 Ignatz Awards, as well as The Number 73304-23-4153-6-96-8, Cinema Panopticum and Breakdown, all published in Spain by Ediciones La Cúpula. tradeinn Techinn
