'Tales of Illuminatus #2' Kickstarter launches

 


The Kickstarter has begun for Tales of Illuminatus #2, the new comic book adaptation for Illuminatus! Here is the announcement from Bobby Campbell.  And also here is the Kickstarter page for the project.

"A CAVALCADE OF NEW CHARACTERS JOIN THE CAST! Simon Moon, Mary Lou Servix, Hagbard Celine, F.U.C.K.U.P., Harry Coin, John Dillinger, Dutch Schulz, Dr. Charles Mocenigo, Robert Pearson, Fission Chips, and so many more!" Bobby writes.

"We are running an extended Kickstarter campaign this time around, running from April 1st through May 31st, and will take late orders up until we go to press...

"TOI #2 will go to press in Summer 2025, and begin shipping world wide immediately thereafter, with digital editions sent out that same day :)))

"Our goal is to ship in Early Summer, Mid Summer is probably more likely, and Late Summer is the worst case scenario."

Recommendation for edition of 'Ulysses'

 


Aaron Gwyn on X: "The Gabler ULYSSES was the first edition I read. It’s not my favorite, though. When I taught an undergraduate ULYSSES seminar a few years back, I used the 1934/1961 Corrected Text that Modern Library puts out. This is the edition I recommend."

Many of the people who read this blog are big Joyce fans; is there a consensus on this?
