Paul Pope supervised the new Image trade paperback edition of Heavy Liquid, which restores the artwork to its original “widescreen” format and features a refined two-color palette (except for the opening and closing 16 pages that are presented in full color). Pope supervised the coloring of the new edition of the 240-page sci-fi saga, and the results can be seen in the subtle color work (as well as his dynamic manga-influenced drawing) in the pages included in the Gallery below.
