Vimanarama

(DC, 2005)
™ and © 2005 DC Comics, Inc.

The unlikely combination of a modern day action story and Eastern philosophy makes for a brand new comic book experience that can only be brought to you by Grant Morrison’s subtle writing and Phillip Bond’s bold artistry. Ali is a young man dealing with existential doubt, and he’s worried that the bride his parents have chosen for him will turn out to be ugly. Fortunately for Ali, Sofia turns out to be beautiful, but the two accidentally release the forces of darkness, reviving a war among the gods. Unfortunately for Ali, it appears that the only thing that can save the world is in love with Sofia, the dashingly handsome, ancient Prince Ben Rama. Grant Morrison and Phillip Bond use vibrant colors, cinematic page design, and understated humor to create a world that stands on the threshold of Armageddon.
