Flex Mentallo: Man of Muscle Mystery | Grant Morrison
3 posts | 6 read | 1 to read
Once he was Hero of the Beach...and of the Doom Patrol. Now Flex Mentallo, the Man of Muscle Mystery, returns to investigate the sinister dealings of his former comrade, The Fact, and a mysterious rock star whose connection to Flex may holding the key to saving them both. This fast-paced tale twists super-hero tropes, introducing one mind-boggling concept after another. This long-asked-for Vertigo title is collected at last, presenting an early collaboration between writer Grant Morrison and artist Frank Quitely, who would win much acclaim on ALL-STAR SUPERMAN.

23/150 There's always one thing you can be sure of with a Grant Morrison comic, it's going to be weird and will probably mess with your mind. He's like the PKD of comics, his stories deal with what is reality, what is imagination, and what makes us human. It can be a bit of a mindf**k at times, but usually work it. A bonus, the artwork by Frank Quietly is exquisite, so detailed and elaborate, you have to go back and look ⬇️⬇️⬇️

This Grant Morrison graphic novel is possibly the most complete exploration of meta-narrative ever made. It deals with the ideas and fictional characters we create and how they can sometimes literally save our lives. This book is psychedelic, emotional, and true for anyone that sometimes needs help finding the strength to face the harshness of life.

Basically the most pure Grant Morrison story about superheroes and metanarritive you can get. Trippy and fun, and the Frank Quitely artwork is about as good as comics illustration gets.
