Beskrivning
"Incredibly fascinating." — BOOKLIST Starred ReviewNot all dreams come true! While history is written by the winners, the full story of humanity is built on the moments when things went completely sideways; the spectacular screw-ups, monumental mistakes, and explosive errors that paved the way for the bright and shiny achievements we normally celebrate. Today, the losers get their due as we honor the speed bumps we had to hit on the road to progress!In this entertaining tour of ill-fated futures, some of comics’ brightest talents relate the historical failure they’re most passionate about, bringing each moment to life in a hopeful and inspiring short story anthology. Some of these dreams were too big for their time, some were unfairly stopped by forces beyond their control, and some were best left on the cutting room floor, but all are windows to a world of possibility that’s still — for now — just beyond the horizon.Features work by RYAN NORTH, HARRY “HBOMBERGUY” BREWIS, EVAN DAHM, BLUE DELLIQUANTI, RYAN ESTRADA, and many more!

Recensioner i media

"The dizzying breadth of theories explored here is itself an achievement, sure to lead readers down a rabbit hole of further study. Incredibly fascinating while still being firmly grounded in realistic human concerns." — BOOKLIST Starred Review"Incisive critiques of capitalism, technology, inequality, and the limits of human ingenuity." — PUBLISHERS WEEKLY"If you like reading about big ideas and outsized dreams—and particularly if you enjoy a bit of schadenfreude—this one is worth checking out." — GEEK DAD
