A street artist makes art by night and paints over it by day. A has-been detective chases a case into a forgotten world. A drug runner makes a long, strange delivery. A writer marks her days on a decaying space station she can’t leave. And a refugee asks for help in the last free place.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a hard-won blend of biting satire and humanistic passion, two creators from the North of England weave together six divergent chapters into an extraordinary graphic novel. \u003ci\u003eGigs\u003c\/i\u003e is both a powerful warning about the oppressive world to come and a defiant celebration of the humanity that will sprout up in the cracks.\u003cbr\u003e“A sharp, funny look at where the future’s heading and what we can do about it.
