Published by Imaginate
A comedy adventure taking place in the playground of Australian history.
This is the second series from IMAGINATE, and continues the adventures of Yell and Olé, taking them out bush. When people ask what The False Impressionists is all about, they are as likely to be told 'painters, outlaws, explorers, cups of tea and tapioca pudding' as 'myth, death and the Australian landscape', so in general people tend to ask about other things, like the weather, or the state of the Dow Jones index. If they do happen to ask about something more practical, like when the next issue is coming out, they get replies like this: 'Huh. That's funny. Did you hear something? I think I just heard something...' or 'Look! Over there! A mangel wurzel! No, really! And it has a little hat on…' You see, it's all a bit hard to to tie down in words. I suppose that's why they did it as a comic...
Aw, come on, give it a red hot go...
Alright then. Ahem. The False Impressionists is an archaeology of the myth-systems that have been laid upon Australia, an investigation of the traces that they leave in the country and in us. It is this, all wrapped up in a crazy arse adventure story.
Crazy arse?
You know. Big baddie called Joe Avantee Gardee who mutters stuff like, "Heh, heh… make dem a pizza dey can't refuse…" Henchman name of Alan Drome who drives a light blue Volvo. Talking kookaburra. Sarcastic raven. Heroes who die every other issue. Doesn't get much more crazier arse than that.
I guess not. Anything else?
Well,The False Impressionists is the most 'comic booky' looking comic book on this site. Standard comic book size: 250mm high and 176mm wide. Full colour covers. Internal art, beautiful black and white of course. Three issues (65 pages) published thus far, from April 1997 to July 2002. As you saw above, don't ask when number 4 is coming out.
When is number 4 coming out?
Wow, look at the size of that mandarine.
IMAGINATE is Brendan Tolley (just call him Tolley) and Caleo, Bernard Caleo.
