Writer Ben H. Winters has a new comics limited series coming out, BENJAMIN, which is a prestige format 3-issue series that melds Philip K. Dick with Thomas Pynchon in a story that bends and breaks perception, time and reality itself.
Ben talks about diving into a story inspired by Philip K. Dick, featuring a character who may or may not be Philip K. Dick himself, trying to figure out why he’s wandering around Los Angeles 40 years after he’s died. He also explains how this story started out as an idea for a novel, and shifting it to a graphic novel presentation.
He also talks about adapting TRACKER from the Jeffrey Deaver novel, and working more with EC Comics and future Oni Press titles.
Oni Press is publishing this prestige format title, with glossy pages and no ads in this dive into experimental story-telling. Issue #1 will be available June 18th.
