In this long-awaited graphic comedy from an esteemed illustrator and storyteller, three bohemians struggle to answer the question: “Is it possible for an artist to survive in the 21st Century?”

A young singer poses for a painter who has shifted from landscapes to nudes, and both of them learn a thing or two about the purpose of art and the meaning of success.

Arriving this fall, Dark Horse Books presents Eric Drooker’s long-awaited third original graphic novel, Naked City: A Graphic Novel. New York Times Editor’s Choice creator Eric Drooker brought comic book fans into an entirely new world with his award-winning Flood and Blood Song, and now expands on these with a new epic meditation on art and life. Blood Song is soon to be a major motion picture, and longtime fans or new readers alike can now explore the story-in-pictures style of Drooker’s expressionist, politically conscious storytelling in a new volume.
