Rewriting History

1916_cover_scamp

Seeing as though 1916 celebrations are in the news I thought I’d give a sneak preview of an upcoming graphic novel by written and drawn by Gerry Hunt and coloured by BRENB. Following on from Streets Of Dublin and In Dublin City,  Blood Upon The Rose, Easter 1916: The Rebellion That Set Ireland Free is Gerry’s third book and will be released in the Autumn, published by O’Brien Press. This is the first Graphic Novel published by O’Brien’s and hopefully it will be the first in a series of historical based graphic novels.

More art after the jump…

    Brilliant! Looks great; art AND colours. I’m glad someone is actually doing a graphic novel about this. Closest we’ve ever come to it was that scene in Preacher.
