Collecting the original twelve scripts of the landmark comics series, the Demo Script Book allows an entertaining and informative behind-the-scenes look at writer Brian Wood and artist Becky Cloonan's creative process, including the early notes setting up the characters, setting, and cover illustrations for each issue. Presented in Wood's very readable script/prose hybrid format and complemented with 12 new illustrations by Cloonan, the Demo Script Book stands solidly on it own or as a companion to the original series.
Brian Wood released his first graphic novel, Channel Zero, in 1997 to considerable critical acclaim and has continued to create at a brisk pace ever since. Focusing almost entirely on creator-owned projects, he's become one of the most important indie creators of the last decade. Standout books include his The Couriers and Channel Zero series, Demo, Local and Supermarket. He's earned multiple Eisner Award nominations and editions of his work have been published in close to a dozen foreign markets. Currently under an exclusive contract for DC/Vertigo, Wood continues to write his unique brand of iconoclastic creator-owned work with DMZ, Northlanders, Demo and The New York Four.
Brian lives with his wife and daughter in Ditmas Park, Brooklyn.
