Description: "Pulling from pulp, sci-fi, gag cartoons, fantasy, and thrillers, and populated by goblins, astronauts, magical thieves, and talking owls, CF's comics break apart genres and forms, then reassemble them into one-of-a-kind stories that reveal an immense imagination and boundary-pushing talent. Christopher Forgues (better known as CF) roared onto the indie comics scene in the early 2000s, producing some of the most exciting and influential work of the decade. His output was startlingly original and impressively prolific: his collaboration with Ben Jones, Paper Radio; his multi-part epic, Powr Mastrs; and the shorter comics and zines now collected for the first time in Distant Ruptures. These comics--created using scratchy pencil and brilliant color, smudged Xeroxes and scraps of notepaper--capture the extraordinary range of CF's work"--

Review Quotes: "Distant Ruptures' these works may be, but they set the depth charges that continue to explode our ideas of what comics might be."-- Jamie Sutcliffe, Art Review
