Comic Book TattooTales Inspired By Tori Amos
Image Comics
“Your big bag of rocks finally got here!” My boss chimes in as he hands me a box weighing slightly more than a small child after a gluttonous day at the fair. I open the box in a wave of excitement as shards of corrugated cardboard and newsprint go flying about my office. And then I see the shiny green cover drawn by Jason Levesque in all its glory... Finally, my very own copy of Tori Amos’ long awaited and much anticipated Comic Book Tattoo, a 480-page anthology of short stories and brief artistic episodes put out by Image Comics based solely on Amos’ immense musical career. Laid out sequentially and including full lyrics to some of Tori Amos’ most memorable recordings, Comic Book Tattoo is the ultimate homage to one of the most prolific songwriters of our time. Each song is reinvented and reinterpreted through full-color illustrations in a way that has never been done before. Featuring Pia Guerra, David Mack, Hope Larson, Ryan Kelly, Jonathan Hickman, Ted McKeever, Jock, Anthony Johnston, Dame Darcy, Carla Speed McNeil, Kelly Sue DeConnick, Mark Buckingham, Ivan Brandon, C. B. Cebulski and many more, the book is even given an introduction by the legendary Neil Gaiman, creator of The Sandman. Filled with art and stories from some of the most brilliant minds in the comic world, even if you’re not a fan of Tori Amos’ music, this book will no doubt entertain you!
