PREVIEW: 'BLACK [AF] DEVIL'S DYE' by Vita Ayala and Liana Kangas

This latest BLACK [AF] collected mini-series is written by breakout star Vita Ayala ( New Mutants, X-Men: Children Of The Atom, Morbius, Bitch Planet, The Wilds ) and rising star artist Liana Kangas ( She Said Destroy ). When a new drug called VANTA hits the streets, word is it's the hottest thing since Ecstacy. For regular people, it has all the highs and none of the lows of traditional drugs. There is some fine print, however - for empowered Black folks, the drug causes a total and violent loss of control. The Project sends Indigo to investigate, and it soon becomes apparent that this is more than just a new designer distraction for the masses. Indigo together with former Detective Ellen Waters race to find the source of the substance poisoning their people, before it's too late! The superhero universe where only Black people have superpowers continues to expand, for the first time with a new creative team building onto the exciting world created by Kwanza Osajyefo, Tim

Gallery1988's 20 Years Later group show celebrates the greatest films of 1996. Earlier this year they opened 30 Years Later, and now this is the art show sequel.

The show consists of paintings, prints and sculptures from some of your favorite G1988 artists (and new names), inspired by films like Space Jam, Fargo, Scream, Mars Attacks!, Trainspotting, Independence Day and Happy Gilmore. 1996 was quite a year of cinema and now you can see an entire exhibit honoring those releases. It opened at G1988 (West) last Friday and now you have the opportunity to purchase all of the work online. You can view, and buy, the artwork at the following link:
