(Den #1)
World acclaimed artist Corben spent over five years creating more than 500 individual paintings for his masterpiece. This enchanting visual epic will be ranked among the great classics of fantasy.
Neverwhere (originally serialized in Heavy Metal magazine, and adapted into the animated movie of the same name) was one of the works that demonstrated the potential of comics as a medium not solely the province of kids. Corben's powerhouse draftsmanship, innovative color palette (the result of his painstaking hand-separation technique), and visceral, fleshy figures, sucks the reader in and never lets you go. Rich in homages to pulpsters Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard, and ribald, frank sensuality, Neverwhere is a timeless grown up fantasy epic.
The saga of Den is a fantasy series about the adventures of a young underweight man who travels to Neverwhere, a universe taking inspirational nods from Robert E. Howard's Hyborian Age, Edgar Rice Burroughs's Barsoom and H. P. Lovecraft's horror dimensions. There, the man becomes an enormously endowed muscled barbarian warrior who has sexy adventures in a world of outrageous dangers, hideous monsters, and buxom women who lustfully throw themselves at him.
