Guardian Live Online with Neil Gaiman and Colleen Doran

Colleen Doran — Mon, 21 Feb 2022 18:58:28 +0000

From the Guardian UK Website: “Award-winning writer and illustrator duo Neil Gaiman and Colleen Doran will introduce their new graphic novel, Chivalry. Chivalry is an adaptation of a short story by Neil Gaiman, in which an elderly widow, Mrs Whitaker, unknowingly buys the Holy Grail in a charity shop – an event that launches her into an epic world of adventure with a handsome young knight who goes by the name of Galaad. In a collaboration that brings to life illustrative styles from the Golden Age, and taking influence from the Illuminated Manuscripts, Chivalry is a charming and witty tale about taking risks, and finding friendship in unlikely places.” Gaiman and Doran have worked together previously on American Gods, The Sandman, Lucifer and the Eisner-winning Snow, Glass, Apples. They will talk to Claire Armitstead about their new work, the art of the graphic novel, and their many collaborations. They will also be answering your questions in this livestreamed event. Running time: 60 minutes This event will be hosted on a third-party live streaming platform. You will receive a link to join the event in the week prior to the event. Yes, you do not need to be in the UK and foreign currencies are accepted. You may also purchase tickets and watch later if you cannot attend the event live. FAQS here. The Financial Times has this advance review of Chivalry. The article also includes previews of the art. “…stunning artwork…Doran’s illustrations, drawing from a soft palette of blues, pinks and greens that flare into sudden glorious bursts of dazzling crimson and gold at need, are what will make Chivalry a perennial Christmas gift.” Chivalry will be in stores in March. Published by Dark Horse Comics. While preorders and print run are high, expect demand to also be very high. WE have had 5 reprints of Snow, Glass, Apples already, so please don’t wait to preorder your copy of Chivalry because due to demand and supply chain issues, reprints will be delayed. Ask for it at all booksellers, comic shops, or order from online retailers.
