Underwater #3 (1995)

Underwater is one of the few unfinished Chester Brown's works, hence it has never been compiled in graphic novel format. The only phisical evidence for its existence is the original comic book series where it was periodically published by chapters.

Neither plot nor author's aims are easy to understand starting with chapter three. Underwater is deliberately surrealist, its dialogue is written in a bizarrely distorted version of English, and a single chapter is too few pages long to draw any kind of conclusion.

In fact, the Underwarter episode is so short because it only fills half of the book. The second half belongs to another legendary unfinished work by Brown, nothing less than the Christian Gospels comic adaptation!. Particularly, these 13 pages adapt the "fedding the multitude" miracle according Gospel of Matthew.

It's known that Brown's graphic translation of Jesus' life has a very special feature among others in any medium: The mood and look of Jesus changes depending on the particular gospel writer he is adapting. Clearly, the chosen depiction for Matthew's part is quite uncommon: semi-bald, older than usual, serious (almost angry) face... I am tremendously curious about the other alternative versions and the autor's reasons to choose those characterizations. I'll look for more chapters of Underwater and Yummy Fur on the Internet, hoping that Chester Brown take the decision to finish any of those works in order to see it reprinted .

Purchased at Gosh! (Soho, London) for  £3.50

Every once in a while I check on my comics collection - mind you, the only one I have in any great amount is Love and Rockets. The first issue I bought was #19 via mail order from a comics shop in 1987, and at that time I just ordered it sight unseen just because I wondered if it had anything to do with the band Love and Rockets. In my defence, V For Vendetta from Warrior magazine a few years before was connected to the band via David J, the bass player, so I thought it was another crossover. Anyway, I was immediately hooked as it was a completely unexpected surprise. That said, Jaime Hernandez's 'Locas' stories were and are still my absolute favourite. I never really got into his brother Beto's work, as the obsession it seemed to have with giant boobs was very weird. More than that, Jaime's artwork and the stories about punks, gigs, and various other things very much related to my life at that time. In 1988 Jaime and Beto were guests at the UK Comic Art Convention in London, so I managed to get some things autographed despite there being no time to talk to them.

And perhaps also of interest, as I keep them in the same box, is an almost complete run of Yummy Fur, which I started buying at the same time as Love and Rockets.
