- Summary:
- "In his debut graphic novel, legendary award-winning director Francis Ford Coppola brings Megalopolis to life with an all-new, reimagined story, adapted by Coppola with Chris Ryall and award-wining artist Jacob Phillips. Megalopolis: An Original Graphic Novel is a unique 160-page graphic novel that presents an alternate version of Francis Ford Coppola's visionary film, created and written by Francis Ford Coppola, adapted by Chris Ryall in collaboration with Coppola, and illustrated by Eisner Award-nominated cartoonist Jacob Phillips. The City of New Rome must change, causing conflict between Cesar Catilina, a genius artist who seeks to leap into a utopian, idealistic future, and his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero, who remains committed to a regressive status quo, perpetuating greed, special interests, and partisan warfare. Torn between them is socialite Julia Cicero, the mayor's daughter, whose love for Cesar has divided her loyalties, forcing her to discover what she truly believes humanity deserves. This graphic novel is a unique, standalone interpretation of the larger world Coppola created; or as Coppola himself put it, Megalopolis: An Original Graphic Novel is "a sibling of the film, rather than just an echo.""--Amazon.com.
