Sean Michael Wilson of Boychild Productions writes with news of his latest comic, currently being solicited through Diamond:

"Beautiful Things is illustrated poetry and short stories in comic book form. It is an unusual literary book, all the 'poem-comics' are written by Sean Michael Wilson (of ‘Angel of the woods’, and ‘Manga mover’ books) and drawn by various artists from several countries, including Neill Cameron, Pedro Belushi and Juan Chavarriga.

"Expressionistic, intimate, sensual, obscure, …These poem-comics are like lightening flashes in that we only see part of a situation or mood for a brief time, then its gone, leaving us wondering. Its comic book influences include Alan Moore, Adrian Tomine, Chris Reynolds, as well as the writings of Kafka and Borges."
