i-DOPPELGäNGER digital edition

i-DOPPELGäNGER: Portrait of the Comic Book Editor in the 21st Century is the final volume in Shelly Bond's graphic memoir trilogy and features art by Imogen Mangle and ArtbyLid. Disco2000 brings great change to DC Comics/Vertigo in both digital production and upper management. Bond shares secret histories of the hits including FABLES,  iZOMBIE, and BODIES, the latter two which became successful tv series, as well MINX, the first graphic novel line for teenage girls, and YOUNG ANIMAL, Gerard Way's pop-up comics imprint. Corporate layoffs forced Bond out of Vertigo in 2016 after 22 years of service, but lead to more innovative ventures in both the creation of BLACK CROWN and OFFREGISTER.PRESS, the comics & design lab she runs with her husband, British artist Philip Bond.
 
i-DOPP also features chapter timelines that include photos and anecdotes about the dozens of titles Bond edited, satirical short comics about the industry, and Confirm/Deny interviews with Vertigo fan favorites including Grant Morrison, Steven T. Seagle, Gail Simone, and Michael Allred.
 
This 176-page digital edition of I-DOPP is supplied as a 111 MB PDF file. You will be emailed a link to download and read on your computer, tablet, or smartphone.  It features a front and back cover by Shelly Bond, and was made possible by thousands of Kickstarter backers.
