MPLS Sound
Autor Hannibal Tabu Ilustrat de Meredith Laxton Autor Joseph Phillip Illidgeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 apr 2021
When Prince burst onto the pop scene in 1978, he put Minneapolis on the music map. Many up-and-coming bands followed the trail that he blazed. MPLS Sound is the story of one such group—Starchild, led by a young woman inspired by Prince to start her own revolution. Through her journey, we see from within exactly how His Royal Badness transformed the entire Minneapolis scene.

Recenzii
“A love letter to music and artistic creativity more broadly. It’s beautiful and unapologetically queer, Black, and brown, rejecting the notion that it needs to be quieter or like more familiar comics in order to succeed.…This book is a testament to Prince and how his music affected the world."
“The book leaves you no choice other than to get sucked into the funkadelicness… The book invites a deeper understanding of music, craft, and of legendary musicians themselves, but also never at the expense of fun and excitement. What’s here possesses the stuff that makes certain comics go beyond greatness, an accomplishment worthy of the Artist that inspired it.”
"Stunning."
"A must-read for Prince fans and music lovers, MPLS Sound's creative team has also made their story perfectly accessible to those more unfamiliar with the Purple One's body of work….[T]he artwork on a comic book like this comes with a high level of expectation which Laxton more than excels at."
“A touching, deeply magical tribute to a man, a musician, and a myth (and the Twin Cities).”
"Funk-infused.”
“An impressive book and a great look at the music scene during Prince’s career and the influence he had..."
“Get this graphic novel and read it. You will channel surf into a story that will take you to another world.”
“An engaging story full of nostalgia for days and dreams left behind. Writers Joseph P. Illidge and Hannibal Tabu and artist Meredith Laxton mix ’80s fashion and names almost forgotten with themes of grief, reconciliation and perseverance that remain as pertinent as ever. MPLS Sound is a worthwhile read, a story that’s equally empathic and appreciative for the way things were and why things have to change.”
