Description
The Projector and Elephant are two surreal graphic novels that explore technology, corporatization, and alienation in the modern world. Written by cult-favorite comics innovator Martin Vaughn-James, these linked works guide the reader through landscapes built from both everyday and nightmarish elements.
Published together for the first time in a single volume, this collection is designed and edited by Seth, with an introduction by Jeet Heer. The result is a prophetic vision of society's turn away from the natural world to the artificial, featuring jam-packed superhighways, plummeting horses, vast urban wastelands, colossal businessmen, demented cartoon animals, and interstellar oranges.
First published in the 1960s, these graphic novels have yet to be fully caught up with by contemporary society. This collection stands as a reminder of Vaughn-James's innovative vision and his enduring influence on the medium.
