Produktbeschreibung
A new illustrated edition of the novel featuring sixty Sumi ink paintings, cover, and interior design by Dmitry Samarov. The Marvel Universe: Origin Stories details the lives and deaths of Wagner’s cast of characters: an orphaned billionairess, a black man wrongly convicted of murder, a schizophrenic child obsessed with the comic book character Wolverine, a cancelled TV star, and the love child of Elon Musk. Their intertwining stories take place during the pandemic, a year of tectonic social unrest, ushering in a new reality that surpasses anything any Hollywood franchise could hope to imagine. In The Marvel Universe, Wagner is able to make myths, delusions, hopes, dreams, grifts, longings, art, and commerce dance over the streets of Los Angeles. Samarov's design and paintings match the brilliance of The Marvel Universe perfectly.
