Tim Doyle and Nakatomi, Inc. have teamed up with James O’Barr, a true comic book legend, for its newest release and The Blot is super pumped! If you read comics in the ‘90s then you’re definitely familiar with The Crow (Eric Draven), O’Barr’s signature character, who was resurrected by a supernatural crow to avenge his and his fiancée’s murders. The Crow indie comic book proved so popular that it spurred multiple movies, novels and even a television series. Tim’s been hinting at this release for a while, but the actual image of the print has been under tight wraps…until now!
The Nakatomi crew first met James at a Texas based comic convention. O’Barr was struck by the screen printing process and how rich the colors and textures could be. After a few more conversations the deal was sealed, and Nakatomi was finding itself planning a print with one of the most influential artistic voices to come out of indie-comics. This is a Texas collaboration at its finest!
The Crow by James O’Barr is an 18”x24” screen print that comes signed and numbered by the artist! Only 150 of these prints have been created, and they go on sale at the Nakatomi online store today, Tuesday, April 10th, at 2pm CST.
