Theo Ellsworth - Capacity



I got sent a copy of this from Secret Acres and it really is awesome. Have a look at the pictures i've badly scanned from it above. It's very dense and i'm still reading my way through it as the pictures are so complicated and beautiful that I start just looking at them for ages instead of reading the story. There's a lot of stuff about dreams in it and trying to draw your dreams in a more real way. Highly recommended.

PS: Now I have read it all the way through and it's great. It's got his seven Capacity mini comics in it and loads of extra stuff about what he was trying to do with the comics and what they mean.. It seems to be about visiting your subconcious and collecting the stories there and then working out how to draw them, i'll definately read it again in a bit.
