TechInn Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial Laberintos Comic Clear . Embark on a journey into "Laberintos," a masterful comic by Charles Burns. As aspiring filmmaker Brian, haunted by childhood horror projects, retreats to a remote cabin with friends, his ambition to create a sci-fi tribute blurs the lines between fantasy and reality. This collection, acclaimed as Burns´ most personal work, is a visually stunning exploration of art, imagination, and adolescent longing, drawing parallels to classic cinema and leaving readers captivated by its dreamlike, yet disturbingly beautiful, narrative. As a child, Brian Milner shot science fiction films at home with the collaboration of his entire gang, who played victims of terrifying murders using lipstick to simulate blood.Today, Brian is a talented aspiring filmmaker, and he plans a trip to a remote cabin in the woods with his friends Jimmy, Tina, and Laurie (the latter has become his muse, albeit reluctantly).He wants to shoot an authentic horror and science fiction film with an old 8-millimeter camera, which will also be a tribute to his favorite film: Invasion of the Body Snatchers.Although it becomes evident that Brian´s feelings for Laurie are not reciprocated, he decides to go ahead with a fantasy in which she is the girl of his dreams, his damsel in distress, and his savior, all at once.Labyrinths is a work full of references to classic films in which the vignettes seem to overflow with impressive representations of nature, cinematographic language, and surreal landscapes, blurring the line between Brian´s dreams and reality.We now present the three albums that make up the work gathered in a single volume: a masterful look at what it means to express oneself through art, internationally recognized as Charles Burns´ most personal work.THE PRESS HAS SAID: A great visual chronicler of teenage alienation.(...) Through his unmistakable graphic style and a story that moves between the dreamlike and the cinematic, Burns constructs a story that functions both as a psychological mirror of his characters and as a reflection on the power and limits of the imagination.(...) Hypnotic and disturbing, it leaves us trapped in that same labyrinth that we no longer want to leave.Sara Sánchez Suárez, El Generacional Without a doubt, one of his best works.Its huge pages shake you and drag you to grandiose American exteriors bathed by the moon. The Guardian A tragic self-portrait drawn with such ironic distance that it would arouse the envy of a Warhol or a Lichtenstein. The New York Times No one knows how to represent teenage tribulation like Charles Burns. Tagesspiegel An autobiographical and introspective story that oscillates between romance, psychological thriller and homage to horror cinema. France Culture Disturbingly beautiful. Wiener Zeitung Burns is in glorious fullness as a cartoonist. Rockdelux An impeccable creation by one of the undisputed giants of auteur comics. Diario 16 A disturbing work with an autobiographical aroma.(.) Shyness, fanciful imagination, a sharp sensitivity and an aura of hurtful misunderstanding. ABC Burns surpasses himself again.(.) Simply glorious. LH Magazin. tradeinn Techinn
