MYSTERY MAN: RICHARD SALA

Sneak down the secret passage of suspense with writer/artist Richard Sala, the modern maestro of macabre mystery. Fantagraphics has published many of his books, including the recent release, In a Glass Grotesquely, which includes a serialized story about a diabolical villain and his lair filled with stylish henchwomen, Super Enigmatix. Sala's trademark ink and watercolor style lulls us in with vintage charm, but be warned! Ghoulish baddies lurk within the pages, ready to bump off characters with sudden and vicious accuracy. A fellow fan of Mrs. Emma Peel, Sala's stories also often feature strong independent female adventurers. Samples of his heroines and rogue's gallery below. Sala is a frequent guest here on Spy Vibe and our conversations often cover mystery and adventure conventions and classic works like James Bond, The Avengers, Dick Tracy, Fantomas, Judex, and many others. Check out our most popular feature interviews The Adventures of Richard Sala and Super Enigmatix. Learn more: Richard Sala website, Tumblr, ViolenziaFantagraphics.
