Omschrijving
Our most lavish, elaborately produced volume. This first monograph and storybook from young Trenton Doyle Hancock describes an ancient conflict: the peaceful, organic Mounds may have been created by the same father, Homerbuctas, who made their violent, nightmarish enemies the Vegans, but the two clans have been caught up in a tragi-comic struggle. Me a Mound combines biblical allusions, gags, food, and sex as it describes their saga in Hancock’s laconic Texan prose and lays it out in his explosively colorful paintings. It’s filled with new work created just for the book and a comprehensive overview of Hancock’s oeuvre. The story sprawls across sheets of actual trading cards, a massive fold out poster, and dozens of tipped in pages. Unforgettable.
