We can no longer protect you. Cancertown 2: Blasphemous Tumours is coming... and the creative tram is now accepting pre-orders for the book before its official launch in November.
If you order now, you're also in with a chance to win a framed piece of art by the book's artist, Graeme Howard.
Set six months after the events of the indie comics horror hit Cancertown: An Inconvenient Tooth, Vince Morley is
a dangerously sick man. Bugf**k is in a psychiatric hospital, sticky fingers
picking through the darkest corners of the mind that brought Cancertown into
existence. The crossing points between Morley’s two realities are wearing thin
and all the rules are changing.
Within Cancertown, something new has appeared – a creature of horrific violence
and limitless rage. The foundations are shaking and the old powers are falling,
one by one. Papercut, deadliest of the Cancertown players, seeks out Morley to
claim the favour he owes her – a favour that could cost him more than just his
life.
In May 2009, an unknown team unleashed their first creator-owned
work, Cancertown, on an unsuspecting world. As the scrappy indie outsider flew
off the stands at Bristol Con at its astounding launch weekend, it earned high praise from the likes of comic book
legend Bryan Talbot and others, including myself.
Suitably encouraged, Cy and company are now back with a second helping of Cancertown and if the art they've shown off on their blog and via MyEBook is anything to go by, this sequel is even more disturbing but enthralling as the first, and it's likely to be a smash hit when it launches at the Thought Bubble
Sequential Arts Festival in Leeds in November.
The Cancer Cell has grown and mutated to include the talents
of Graeme (Dick Turpin and the Crimson Plague) Howard on pencils and amazing
new discovery Peter Mason on colours.
