Riassunto

Wool as you’ve never read it before: The New York Times bestselling novel now told in graphic novel format, featuring full-color illustrations by Hugo Award-nominated artist Jimmy Broxton, and as adapted by fan-favorite writers Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray. This contemporary dystopian classic—hailed by Justin Cronin, New York Times bestselling author of The Passage, as “an epic feat of imagination”—will captivate readers both familiar and new.

This is the story of mankind clawing for survival, of mankind on the edge. The world outside has grown unkind, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they profess to want: They are allowed outside.

This collection includes over 20 pages of bonus material: Jimmy Broxton’s sketchbook, variant covers by Darwyn Cooke, and more!

Su questo libro

L'autore:

Hugh Howey wrote Wool while working as a bookseller, writing each morning and during every lunch break for nearly three years. Originally self-published in 2011, Wool has grown into a New York Times blockbuster. He now lives in Jupiter, Florida, with his wife, Amber, and their dog, Bella.

Jimmy Palmiotti is a writer, editor, and creator—a multi award-winning character creator with a wide range of experience in advertising, production, consulting, editorial, film and comic writing, development and production, media presentation, and video game development.

Justin V. Gray is an author, graphic novelist, scriptwriter, and video game writer. He previously worked as an advocate for victims of crime, a chef, a fossil hunter, and a micro-photographer specializing in prehistoric insects and plants trapped in amber.

Jimmy Broxton is a designer, illustrator, and comic book artist who cares way too much about “negative space," "pattern value,” and the optimum consistency of waterproof drawing ink. He struggles daily to put the images in his head onto paper—his long-suffering partner and cats also struggle daily...just to put up with him.
