Elvis Road HC

Description

ELVIS ROAD unfolds into a 25 foot long infectiously joyful & amazingly beautiful cartoon landscape in which Hieronymus Bosch meets Richard Scary (a paradoxical mix of terrifying social commentary and cartooning fun!) Xavier Robel and Helge Reumann devoted almost an entire year to their collaboration on ELVIS ROAD and the result is a single drawing that reveals a world overflowing with hundreds of mini-narratives with armed maniacs, rampaging crowds, chaotic policemen, overflowing hospitals, a tree-house of women, a forest of literal tree-huggers, and hordes of shoppers. The book features the most frenzied, inspired, and dense drawing you've ever seen: 8,433 characters, 3,546 vehicles, 1,847 buildings, 763 cartoon icons, 526 corporate billboards, 189 religious figures, 25 parade floats, 1 super-dildo, a junkyard purgatory, a porno strip-mall, and more... In its broadest strokes and finest details, ELVIS ROAD delights, baffles, and provokes.
