Today marks the release of the critically acclaimed OGN, Gigs – this dystopian debut is from two creators from the North of England who weave together six divergent chapters into an extraordinary graphic novel. Gigs is both a powerful warning about the oppressive world to come and a defiant celebration of the humanity that will sprout up in the cracks.
AND the Gigs creators have put together this Spotify Playlist to accompany your read!
​“The incorporation of music and the history of the punk scene is also a great reminder that powerful art tends to exist in opposition to the status quo, but art alone doesn’t change the world.” – The Comics Beat
STARRED Review; “Empathy and attention to everyday yearnings are evoked in Smith’s wonderfully expressive faces. A smart mix of tight panel grids and sudden wide shots keeps the pace brisk. The result exhilarates, provokes, and—in every sense of the word—moves.” – Publishers Weekly
“Through friendship, punk rock, and teamwork, a handful of people rebel against this Orwellian future.” – Kirkus Reviews
