- Summary
- "In this graphic novel, Aqualantics maintain a fragile peace with their 'surface brothers'--as long as their world remains a myth. But when an actor who plays the character of the 'indefensible Earthman', all cynicism and vulgarity, is gradually possessed by his role, a chain reaction jeopardizes the entire kingdom and the uneasy peace between the two species. Giorgio Carpinteri's sheer graphic brilliance -- fusing aspects of Futurism, Cubism, Russian Constructivism, and German Expressionism with echoes of Bauhaus and distinct whims of Art Deco -- would be enough to carry this brilliant fantasy, but Aqualantic is also a lyrical, allegorical masterpiece exploring the relationship between the conscious and unconscious, the known and the unknown."--Provided by publisher.
