NON no. 5
Red Ink, Los Angeles, California, 2001
Description
Because of the diversity of art and storytelling used by the comics in this collection, the primary challenge was to unify without taking away from the individual voice of each story. Two stories were too long for the main book, and were printed in books of their own, and the same unified versus individual identity problem was presented. I used a two-color patterned cover—based on a single shape that is derived from the book’s content—with the same colors being used again on the inside, the darker color as line art. The books, while maintaining their individuality, appear to be a set when presented together.
