Description
Newspaper reporters have Superman. Physicists have the Incredible Hulk. Wealthy industrialists have Batman. But what superhero can urban designers and planners look to for inspiration? Mister X.
Comic aficionados will remember the original Mister X publications in the early 1980s for their distinctive style and for launching the careers of a number of legendary comic artists. Now reissued as a graphic novel, the comics tell the tale of Radiant City, where residents have been driven mad by the urban form. The urban designer responsible for it struggles to find a cure, even as his own sanity crumbles.
A fun read for anyone who spends his days thinking about how cities affect their inhabitants.
