Gary Spencer Millidge is one of those great guys in comics who you meet and instantly think to yourself, “I would trust him with anything.” He lives in England so I don’t see him very often, but it’s always a real treat to do so. Millidge’s big series is a book called Strangehaven, about a man who ends up in a mysterious village that seemingly won’t let him leave no matter how hard he tries. A great mix of mystery, drama, and soap opera; there are three collections out right now, and I live in eternal hope that someday we’ll see more issues and a fourth volume.
The character above is one of the Knights of the Golden Light, a secret society that lurks within Strangehaven. And they’re just the tip of the iceberg, to be honest…
I have pretty much given up on ever seeing the end of Strangehaven which is a great shame as I really enjoyed it. Must be going on 5 years now since the last issue.
I’m afraid to look up how long it’s been. One of these days… one of these days…
