IT WILL ALL HURT

Farel Dalrymple is producing some wonderful work in this first chapter of what you might describe as a "stream of unconsciousness" comic, IT WILL ALL HURT at Study Group.  It seems to be an exercise in capturing the shifting settings and embodiments of dream reality, and it works (for me) almost eerily well.  Even though he has a shelf of awards by now, Dalrymple still seems to me to be under-read and low-profile in the medium.  He’s one of those creators that people should be talking about every day.  I know he’s working on a book for First Second right now, and he recently changed gears to produce a fine illustration job for an issue of PROPHET.

IT WILL ALL HURT will be adding new sections every Friday, I believe.
