Following the indie-hit Monocyte, menton3 will be writing and illustrating a three-issue limited series for IDW Publishing titled The Memory Collectorswhich has a Dark City (1998) vibe.
A group of unexpected heroines uncover the terrifying revelation that humans have become unwillingly harvested by demonic entities for their memories. Undaunted, the group decides to fight back against their unseen enemies in this desolate new reality.
“It’s always an honour to work with IDW,” stated menton3. “I feel so incredibly lucky to have their help to put out a very different kind of story from me. Working on The Memory Collectors reminded me of why I wanted to make comics.” The latest project marks the third creator-owned project from menton3 at IDW Publishing. “Menton’s blend of fine art and storytelling produce something completely unique,” remarked series editor Denton J. Tipton. “He’s a pleasure to work with, and every new page he turns in finds a new way to surprise me."
The Memory Collectorsarrives in October 2013.
