Faro is the manifestation of one man’s look back at his own insane life and dreams during a year of quarantine after a near fatal accident. Bored of biblical quests for ancient relics, “Doing this graphic novel allowed me to mix a bit of lust and seduction with fantasy and allowed me the freedom to create a story so out there, so over the top, it took 26 artists to tell it,” explained author Faro Kane. “This novel is part story and part showcase, covering an international variety of artists from different genres, styles and levels of commercial success.
The opening chapter of the FARO saga features the interior talents of Ale Garza (Deadpool, Teen Titans, Witchblade) Pat Broderick (Batman, Captain Marvel, Micronauts) Richard Clark (Dark Horse) and Paolo Pantalena (Top Cow, Aspen) all neatly wrapped in an unbelievable cover by Franchesco (DC, Zenescope)
