After revolutionizing the worlds of design and storytelling in 1984, Dean Motters Mister X returned half a decade later to reinvent alternative comics again for a whole new audience. Returning to the story of Radiant Citys mysterious architect and his sleepless quest to repair the flaw in its design that is driving its citizens mad, the second version of Motters creation used the black-and-white format to introduce deeper shadows and more expressionistic angles to its Art Deco world. With an edgier look and starker themes, this take on Mister X is as groundbreaking today as it was twenty years ago. Primarily written by Jeffrey Morgan, the authorized biographer of both Alice Cooper and Iggy Pop & The Stooges.
