I’m a big fan of Paul Rainey‘s work. Have been for quite some time, especially his epic “There’s No Time Like The Present” series (review here). But Paul also does something called “The Book Of Lists”, a diary strip where events are ordered by category rather than in a linear fashion. When Paul’s got enough in any one category he puts them into a strip.
Well Paul has just announced that he’s finally collecting this previously web only work:
“I’m delighted to be able to confirm that an actual reality Book Of Lists book is in production. The book will collect all completed comic strip lists so far in colour. It will be 112 pages long and feature over fifty strips including fourteen that have previously only been available to see online for a single day and not been assembled into strips until now.”
The illustration above is a detail from the cover and there’s a limited number of sample strips online. And finally, to give you an idea of what this whole Book Of Lists stuff is all about here’s one Paul did earlier:
