He has an excellent style that is part graffiti, part Ninja Turtles, part anime and part video game. He is inspired by everything. If you follow his wordpress, twitter or tumblr you probably already know that.I've been reading the quality comic books by him and his friends since I found out about him. Prophet is another great comic by Brandon. His wife Marian does great comics too like Elephant Men, and his buddy James Stokoe does Orc Stain.The book itself is his Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band, it's his breakout work. The story is damn good, the art is damn good. He even had his graffiti artist friends do graffiti for the walls of his fictional metropolis. I love all the different characters, monsters, aliens, robots in this book. I love how Brandon makes little maps and shows you what's in the pockets of his characters' clothes. The topics they cover and hint upon are unique, fresh, and interesting.If you could compare the comic book industry to the movie industry, Brandon does not make corporate bullcrap, but his stuff is really good and worth a look. I like to think of him in much the same vein as Tarantino or Robert Rodriguez.Check out his book Multiple Warheads as well if you like this book, it is very similar. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly Creative *by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2012* I too bought this on a lark. Like some of the other reviewers, I was a little disappointed at first. The pacing seemed slow and the dialogue seemed purile. Had to put it down and pick back up a few times after a rest bit. At one point when I was feeling negative I was thinking i bought some silly kid book for adolescent stoners. I kept reminding myself I got this 400 page book for only 11 bucks and so what if i bought a stinker, right? As I kept going, things stabilized and I realized I had a uber-creative, zany, complicated, sophisticated tour de force in my hands. I was able to melt into this world and wrap my head around it. It took me to another reality. I think after another read, a lot more of the subtleties will come to me. There was character development in a way that could have become contrite and cliché, but the author didn't go that way. Kept it human and kept it real. There are tons of clever puns, funny ads, hilarious graffiti and laugh out loud product names all over the city. The art is remarkably detailed and rich. Cityscapes are mind blowing in detail. Grahams renderings of the female form are quite gripping (no pun intended) and the action is good as well. It is an adult book that I enjoyed a hell of a lot more than i thought I was, especially at first. My only complaint is that I felt the ending was kind of abrupt and anti-climactic. I will still give it 5 stars since it was a superbly imaginative book. Bravo! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yes, it's really that good. Buy it. *by K***O on Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2012* This is a really great book that deserves much more attention.It's hard to summarize the plot, not because it it's all that hard to explain, but rather because the plot is really secondary to the wonderfully chaotic city it's set in, the surprisingly well-developed characters and the ever-present puns and word play.A very short summary is Joe is a catmaster robbing, stealing and grifting his way through King City, a chaotic future city where aliens, mutants, zombie war vets and ninjas share the streets.But as I said, the plot is almost beside the point, this is a book whose real strength is in the characters and setting. Writer-artist Brandon Graham gives each page more love and attention than some artists give a whole book. They are jam-packed with details, in-jokes, puns and flair. This is a book you have to reread just to catch all the subtle things you missed the first time.Despite the surreal setting the characters are well-grounded and feel like people you know. Yes, even the guy who uses his cat as a weapon, even Xombie War vet, all of them have strong realistic personalities. Graham's style is a bit cartoony but all of the characters look distinct and realistic. The only one close that I can think of is Katsuhiro (Akira) Otomo, Graham's King City at times feels like Otomo's Mega Tokyo on acid.This is really a delightful book and at just $20 a total steal. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for something new and cool in American comics. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/16289738-king-city](https://www.desertcart.in/products/16289738-king-city) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
