SAVAGE WORLD OF TONY LORENZ

Vikings, wizards, reanimated skeletons, street gangs, teen arcades, mystic swords and haunted jewels meld perfectly in this DIY saga that captures the exuberance of limitless adolescent daydreams from the 1980s! Welcome to the fantastical, mind-bending and wholesomely Savage World of Tony Lorenz, the cult cartoonist who worked during the height of the indie ‘80s black-and-white comics boom and brought-to-life the hit first issue of the acutely offbeat comic series JONTAR. Together with his high-school classmate in 1983, Tony Lorenz co-created this ambitious fantasy-adventure SAVAGE WORLD, which follows the exploits of sailors Slick and Jimi in several dimension-crossing adventures. The aesthetic friction of a maritime fable rendered unintentionally in the style of 80s punk flyers propels what was once rejected as woefully amateur into rediscovered outsider art for the new millennium. Along with several other curated works collected in this expansive volume, this expansive collection is a celebration of the untrained and unrestrained, with many of these cosmic creations hitting print for the very first time ever! Enter a world where politics means nothing, a world where wizards and churches reign supreme, a world where men live for the adventure, welcome to - - - The Savage World
