9-11 #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects a series of short comics stories created in response to the September 11, 2001 attacks, featuring contributions from various writers and artists. Published by Dark Horse in 2002, it is part of a multi-publisher charitable anthology project that aimed to raise funds for relief efforts. The collection includes work by notable creators, offering personal and reflective narratives on the tragedy and its aftermath.
"In Flanders Fields" is a striking, standalone story from the 2002 9-11 anthology, rendered in full by Alex Ross, whose distinctive painted style brings a haunting, reverent tone to the issue’s solemn theme. The cover, a powerful collaboration by Eric Drooker, captures the somber mood with stark, expressive lines. This issue, part of a broader collection reflecting on the events of September 11, 2001, stands as a quiet yet profound moment in the series’ second volume, using art and atmosphere to evoke memory and loss without narrative exposition.
In "Clowns' Day Off," a lone clown sits in quiet reflection on September 11th, penning a love letter while the radio plays softly in the background. As news of the day’s events breaks, his moment of vulnerability gives way to a sudden, quiet rupture—his letter, once full of hope, is torn to pieces.
