ART BRUT (2022)

Presenting here the first major work from the creative minds behind ICE CREAM MAN-re-lettered, remastered, and under its original intended name! The world of fine art is falling apart, and only ART BRUT knows how to fix it. Alongside the Bureau of Artistic Integrity, Arthur Brut the Mad Dreampainter (and his trusty sidekick, Manny the Mannequin) must dive back into the very paintings that made him insane...or reality itself might just crumble to pieces. A colorful, gonzo romp through art and art history, ART BRUT is equal parts police procedural, hyper-fantasy, and psychological thriller-a veritable Pollock-splatter of comics genres tossed onto one giant pulpy canvas! Each issue features new covers, new design, and a new Silver Age-style backup story featuring the art hero that no one's ever heard of-until now! Originally published under the title The Electric Sublime, this special edition presents the NPR-lauded, critically acclaimed material in its intended form.

Stuck inside the Mona Lisa, Arthur, Manny, and Margot walk through the charred landscape and try to figure out what destroyed our favorite smiling painting.   And outside the canvas, Margot investigates an art class gone very wrong...   Featuring new letters, new covers, and another new Silver Age-style backup story, the lost adventures of Art Brut continue here!

Get ready for a real SCREAM, as Art & Co dive into Edvard Munch's iconic painting to see what all that noise is about! And lest it bears repeating: this issue features new letters, new covers, and another new Silver Age-style backup story, as the lost adventures of Art Brut continue apace!

END OF STORY ARC It's the gonzo, genre-jumping, art-history-spanning finale to the pulpy, painty psycho-art-noir thriller of the year! (And years past, if we're being honest...) Watch in awe as Art Brut and Manny chase a mysterious figure through cubism, through pointillism...and even through a beloved Edward Hopper! And in the waking world, Margot infiltrates the secret base of the Correction, forced to lock horns with that wily Warhol impersonator. (Or is it...?) STILL featuring new letters, new covers, and a final new Silver Age-style backup story, rounding out the previously misplaced adventures of Art Brut!
