Image Comics Show at One-Shot Gallery
If I was in NYC this coming weekend I would make time to visit the One-Shot Gallery event dedicated to 22 years of Image Comics. Starting Saturday, this art show celebrates the work of Image with a wide selection of artworks that you need to at least look at. Come on, Austin, and get me a cool art show related to comics or toys. Don’t make me do the work myself!
In 1992, several high-profile artists that were frustrated with working for DC and Marvel struck out on their own to form Image Comics. These artists joined with other unique talents to give the creator-owned movement a shot in the arm by putting out books like Spawn, WildC.A.T.s and The Maxx which would become synonymous with comics in the ’90’s. Since then, Image has become the place for creator-owned projects, including critically-acclaimed series like The Walking Dead, Saga and Rocket Girl. This exhibit celebrates the awesome books published by Image Comics from ’92 to today.
