Kosmik Musik – A graphic novel by Ben Wheatley & Joe Currie is heading our way

Two years in the making Kosmik Musik is a collaboration between artist Joe Currie, writer Ben Wheatley and musical group Beak>, who worked closely with the artists to provide a musical accompaniment for the graphic novel. The audio is available digitally worldwide via Invada from today. Further details on the limited-edition physical formats below.

Ben and Joe met at art school in the 90s where they both were involved in a lot of comic book drawing and reading. It’s taken thirty years to finally get their acts together and create this book. In the meantime, Joe has been sculpting and painting. Ben has been writing and directing films.

Kosmik Musik is melting pot of 2000ad, Metal Hurlant, Kirby tech, psychedelic 60s art, Doctor Who, Douglas Adams, Kraut Rock, Star Trek and Star Wars. A UK 70s English childhood basically.

The project comes with a sonic accompaniment by Beak> who have live dates on the horizon including Primavera Sound in LA.

The galaxy is a big place–but not big enough for Mick and Eve as they are chased across it by cops, inter-dimensional plunderers, rogue artificial intelligences, middle-aged assassins and a third-tier superhero team.

Come with us on a rip roaring, planet hopping adventure. Punches will be thrown; tears will be shed and music will be played on vinyl on vintage record players as Mick and Eve try to solve every sentient creature’s fundamental questions like why and what… and eh?

Yes, dear reader, Kosmik Musik will unlock some of the more pressing mysteries of the universe. True Fact.
