Clown Press have just released this trailer for The Prison, a new colection of stories, prose, poetry and soapbox ramblings based on the observations of Adam R. Grose, writer of Adam R. Grose, Cosmogenesis: The Chronicles of Quongo.
Grose writes of a world some might prefer to sweep under the proverbial rug, where all and sundry is laid bare. His comic pages and illustrations range from pencil to brush and ink drawings; illustrating the complexities of the 21st Century. Which all sounds pretty deep, but if you’ve read Cosmogenesis that should come as no surprise!
• The Prison is on sale from 10 May 2008. More information from Clown Press.
