Cult comic book creators Shaky Kane (The Beef) and Krent Able (Vice), are producing an anthology of never-before-published comic strips in a new graphic novel under the clever title, Kane and Able.
And who better to sell this genre-busting, groove ride of a graphic novel than one of the kooky creators themselves, Skay Kane himself:
This one had to happen! In the tradition of Godzilla and Kong, and Siegfried and Roy. Kane and Able have finally teamed up to ride the Action Park white-knuckle-head flume of comic book kulture! Only a book this big could do it justice!
A cross between the punky, West Coast hotrod art of Coop and old school comic book four-colour art of the Silver Age, this new collection promises to be something very different from your usual books. Kinda like a funky fanzine for mature readers:
“Readers will slip in and out of subconsciousness with the “Astonishing Shield Bug”, surf the Fleshwave with Black Fur in “Who Fears The Deathroach?”, journey into the sub-basement in the gasoline-tinged “Dustmites,” and ride into the Creepzone with Nightmare and Sleepy in the aptly named “Creepzone”!”
