The Obscure Cities - The Return of Captain Nemo

內容簡介

內容簡介 In this volume, through a story told with love and respect for the subject by the award-winning author, Benoît Peeters, and brought to life through the imagination and illustrations of legendary Belgian artist, François Schuiten, the creators follow the legendary Captain Nemo, as he awakens from his eternal slumber, only to find himself being transported around the world under the sea aboard a freakish hybrid of Octopus and his infamous submarine, the Nautilus, referred to as the Nauti-Octopus. Through the story, the sea captain gains clarity of mind as well as body as he is transported towards Amiens, the home of his creator, Jules Verne. In this final installment of the internationally acclaimed graphic novel series, Les Cites Obscures (The Obscure Cities), The Return of Captain Nemo has been produced in conjunction with a sculpture installation being built in Amiens, France, to commemorate the bicentennial of Jules Vernes' birth. Illustrated throughout with full-page and sequential illustrations, this volume also includes full-page reproductions of Schuiten's illustrations from the 1994 French edition of Jules Vernes' lost novel, Paris in the Twentieth Century, and essays on Verne and Schuiten by Benoît Peeters.
