NETTLE & BONE

RELEASED 26 APRIL

3/5

Some fairy tale heroines never find their happily ever after. And not all princes are handsome and heroic.

In Nettle & Bone, we meet Marra, a young princess whose eldest sister is wed to a prince from a neighbouring kingdom. When the sister dies in mysterious circumstances, Marra is shocked to discover that this prince isn’t a figure from girlish daydreams, but instead a sadist who finds his thrills in abusing and raping women. This early revelation plunges what feels like an airy, delicate novel into dark Bluebeard territory.

Special K - Asking the important question, “What if a robot had a really big sword?”, this new graphic novel is very much in the tradition of 2000 AD’s punky spirit, even if it doesn’t manage to linger long in the memory.

ALTERED STATES

Essentially Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde if it'd been written by Carlos Castenada, Ken Russell's characteristically unrestrained take on a script by Network's Paddy Chayefsky is a bracing mix of acid trip visuals and hoary old tropes.
