Britten and Brulightly's Effing Weather: Pitch-Perfect Noir

britten-1I just posted a short feature on Hannah Berry's brilliant Britten and Brulightly over at Omnivoracious. Great stuff. As usual, I think Joe Gordon at Forbidden Planet got there first, but am happy to have discovered Berry in this new US edition."What every great noir needs is the right atmosphere, and the sepia tones of Berry's creation set that mood perfectly. The subtle shifts in those tones, from gray to brown to green work well with panels that contain an amazing amount of texture and detail, without ever seeming crowded."More images below the cut, although they don't really do justice to the wealth of shades and nuances in the colors.britten_and_brulightlybritten-openingbritten-2
