Title: Twisted Dark: Volume One
Author: Neil Gibson
Twisted Dark is Neil Gibson's interconnected psychological thriller
anthology. This, the first volume, is formed of 12 individual and
unique stories comprising of nearly 200 hundred pages. The stories vary
from 10 year old girls to Colombian drug lords and everything in between
but the stories are all somehow connected some obviously so and some
not. It is left to the reader to find the connections, with some
impossible to see until you have read multiple volumes. The books
contains horror, dark, at times demented, stories incorporating every
human emotion, illegal activity, and brutal reality. Using various
illustrators allows each story and character to develop their own form
the reader is left desperate to turn the pages. The book has been
embraced by the comic book world receiving critical acclaim and a cult
underground following.
Neil is the founder and lead writer at TPub. He is currently
writing all of the titles at TPub, but is looking forward to the day
when other writers are hired he can take credit for their work. He used
to be a management consultant, before realising in his 30s that he loved
good comics and wanted to make a career out of them. He believes that
the comic book medium is one of the most efficient mediums for
communicating stories. If you want to annoy him, just mention how you
think comics are for kids. His reaction is a common source of amusement.
He has given talks in universities and clubs about comics and will
gladly talk anywhere he is invited to about comics and how underutilised
they really are. To book Neil to give a talk, please email info@neilgibsoncomics.com
