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
