James Turner, the creator of the acclaimed Rex Libris comic book series returns to SLG Publishing with the release of his new graphic novel The Book of Maggor Thoom.

As with most of Turners comic book work, Maggor Thoom exists in a heightened reality which is parallel to our own. The lead character, Maggor Thoom is a demon who lives on the surface of a black hole. 

After endless eons of success as the star employee of the Insanity Acquisition Department, he has lost his passion and purpose. Yet he knows all to well that those who do not drink the Antediluvian Kool-Aid are soon fed to the ravenous Maw.  To save himself from annihilation, Mr. Thoom sets off on a desperate journey of self-discovery: he flees The Void and seeks help on a small, blue orb known as Earth. 

Like Turner’s other work, The Book of Maggor Thoom explores the themes of being, identity and purpose but this time in a more lighthearted way.

 From a technical and visual aspect Maggor Thhoom is also different from Turner’s other published work in the technique used to create the graphic novel. The Book of Maggor Thoom is out now and available from Amazon.com, from select comic book retail locations, as well as direct from SLG Publishing on their website. The Book of Maggor Thoom is a 160 page black and white graphic novel priced at $14.95.
