El Arte del Crimen (The Art of Crime) by Marc Omeyer and Olivier Berlion.

El Arte del Crimen (The Art of Crime). Five stories about crime. All written by Marc Omeyer and Olivier Berlion. Each story is drawn and coloured by different artists. French comic. This is the Spanish edition. (I hope they published more French comics like this in English.)


I really enjoyed this book. The first story is about a man obsessed with an unfinished comic book. And people who had something to do with the comic are dying. The other stories are written by this man and are about crimes committed in the name of different sorts of art:

1. Comic - 1970s about the comic obsessed man.

2. Painting - Paris 1860 - a novel painter who gets inspiration in strange ways.

3. Architecture - this is a pirate story

4. Sculpture - takes place in roman times

5. Film - early 20 century


There are 9 stories in total. The other 4 stories should be published soon (hopefully).
