Madman, Volume 4: Heaven and Hell (G-Men from Hell 1-5)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Frank Einstein has never led a normal life -- as far as he knows -- but lately his topsy-turvy times have been undeniably loony. In this fourth collection chronicling the life of comics` coolest undead guy, Frank goes from holiday giddiness to super-secret paranoia, friends become enemies, and sworn enemies become ... saviors? In this tome of 136 colorful pages, Frank makes amends with a beatnik ghoul, meets Santa Claus, gets his house fixed up, and goes on an unexpected adventure. It turns out fellow undead foes, Mattress and Crept, have gotten themselves in a snag, and it`s up to Frank to find out what`s up. Mysteries are explained, but there`s plenty of confusion to take its place. It`s a kooky book -- take a look!
From the Publisher
Judging from his polished and highly-accessible art, it might seem that Mike Allred has been drawing comics his entire life, but the popular writer/artist behind Madman and Red Rocket 7 actually came into comics relatively late in life. Allred's first career choice was broadcast media, and during a stint as a news reporter in Europe in the mid-'80s, he began storyboarding an original screenplay in his spare time. That storyboarding gave way to a new interest in graphic storytelling, and soon the ambitious Allred had created a small library of compelling alternative comics. Eventually, with the hopes of creating a character his young children could enjoy, Allred dreamed up the sweet and surreal Madman, a comic series about a Frankenstein-like character who finds new life as costumed superhero in the zany world of Snap City. Allred is a talented artist who enjoys creating music and filmmaking in his spare time. He lives in Eugene, Oregon with his wife Laura (the award-winning colorist on most of his books), and his three children.
