ENGLISH (promo): Jamie Delano is back with this new science fiction masterpiece! The British writing maestro, who helped usher in Vertigo with his launch of Hellblazer, returns to comics with his radical new vision of the future. The citizens of Narcopolis lead blessed lives, enriched by sucking down delicious MamaDream and filling their tasks to enrich society. But Gray Neighbor just isnt sure that is all life has to offer, and maybe there is more beyond the daily sluice. But when a psychestryke horrorist attack brings carnage to his life, he is thrust deeper into the edges of this utopian society and into conflict with the agents of T.R.U.S.T. who keep order. Crafting whole new chunks of language, and stunning concepts of a bizarre new world, Delano delivers a masterful new series that has to been seen to be believed! New artist Jeremy Rock provides stunningly detailed sequential pages that fully compliment this truly revolutionary book. Each issue is available with a regular and wraparound cover by Jeremy Rock and also a rare 1-in-15 Design Sketch Cover Edition by Rock.


SERBIAN (review): Jamie Delano je, svakako, jedno od zvučnijih imena u mejnstrim strip svetu. S pravom najpoznatiji po antologijskim stranama "Hellblazer"-a, ali cenjen i po nešto opskurnijim radovima. Bizarni one-shot "Tainted" i biser savremenog sci-fi "World Without End" su moje preporuke kada je ovaj autor u pitanju i neizbežnotema nekog od budućeih postova. Do tada pričamo i uživamo u "Narcopolis"-u. Četvorodelna mini-serija objavljena 2008. godine pod nezavisnom (da ne kažem "indie") "Avatar Press" etiketom je dostojan dodatak Delanovoj, ako ne kvantitetom, onda kvalitetom bogatom bibliografijom. Sociološka, distopijska, sci-fi priča po uzoru na "Vrli Novi Svet", na početku zbunjuje čitaoca - možda ne tipično za format mini-serije u kojoj zabava kreće odmah, a velike istine, odgovori i kraj već nekoliko strana potom. Ipak, kao da konfuznost tera čitaoca da gura dalje, da svu pažnju posveti delu i, nekako, nakon desetak strana uvuče u taj svet. U Narcopolis! grad usred opustošene divljine, prepune zla i izvitoperenosti, grad u kome biti dobar i vredan građanin znači biti živ, bezbedan i nagrađen hektolitrima opijajućih fluida. Glavni akter priče je neko ko traži slobodu, makar za nju tu i takvu sigurnost morao trampiti. A, Vi? Danas kada vas na bukvalno svakom radnom mestu snimaju kamere, danas kada neki tamo serveri u nekoj tamo prekookeanskoj pizdariji od države čuvaju sve vaše lične podatke, danas kada Vas u sandučetu čeka 10+ reklama za "povoljne" kredite... da li želite da budete Bezbedni ili Slobodni?
