- Transparent Life
Transparent Life is a
fumetti or photo-comic scripted, designed, and shot by Charlie Beck. Transparent Life began humbly in May 2004 as a series of independent comics (through Milwaukee-based CHIMP Comics) and a basic website. After a few months of poor sales and mixed reactions, the series folded and the site was eventually taken down.In August 2005 Transparent Life relaunched with Undertoad Comics, an artistic conglomerate led by Beck himself. The series lasted five monthly issues before moving entirely to the web at UndertoadComics.com. December marked the release of "The Collected Transparent Life Volume 1", a collection of the first five issues and previously unreleased material. The book experienced moderate sales.
Beck continued to produce new Transparent Life material throughout 2006 (as well as other unrelated work), posting new items to the website once a week. His next collection, which will feature comics from the website along with unreleased material, is "The Collected Transparent Life Volume 2." While the book originally had a scheduled release date for December 2006, it has since been delayed indefinitely.
