Richard Starkings hits the UK for a signing extravaganza

Berkeley, CA - 19 May 2021 - Richard Starkings, creator of ELEPHANTMEN, is making his way over the drink for a series of exclusive appearances and signings in the United Kingdom.

Starkings’ first stop is the Bristol International Comic & Small Press Expo (http://www.fantasyevents.org/bristolcomicexpo), May 22-23, 2010. You’ll find Starkings and several other Image Comics creators exhibiting at the show.

Panelists include Charlie Adlard (The Walking Dead), Ian Churchill (Marineman), David Hine (Strange Embrace, The Bulletproof Coffin), Kieron Gillen (Phonogram), and Paul Grist (Jack Staff).

ELEPHANTMEN is an Eisner Award winning series first published in 2002 under Starkings’ Active Images imprint. In 2006 Image Comics approached Starkings to bring the book under their umbrella. The story of the Elephantmen takes place in Los Angeles in the not too distant future — in a world where human/animal hybrids were created to fight a war between Africa and China. Scarred by their experiences in war and seeking to somehow find their own humanity, the Elephantmen are now scattered throughout the world amongst the humans they were created to kill. ELEPHANTMEN is a brilliant commentary on racism, miscegenation, global warming, stem cell research and warfare. Created and written by Starkings, the series features artwork by Ladrönn, Moritat and Boo Cook. Earlier this year, the series was optioned by Zucker Productions for major motion picture development.

Don’t miss your chance to meet Richard Starkings during a series of exclusive appearances in the UK, May 22-30, 2010.
