CHUCK PALAHNIUK'S PORTLAND

摘要

"Keep portland weird." So goes the Oregon city's unofficial motto, and Chuck Palahniuk is certainly doing his part. The author of books like Choke, Snuff, and, most famously, Fight Club, Palahniuk specializes in antiheroes who are into some wonderfully crazy shit. This June, Portland-based comic book publisher Dark Horse is releasing its 10 issues of Fight Club 2 as a complete graphic novel. The idea to do a sequel as a comic came about at a writers' workshop dinner where comics superstars Kelly Sue DeConnick, Matt Fraction, and Brian Michael Bendis urged Palahniuk to try something different. "It was just a big ambush to pressure me into writing a comic," Palahniuk says. He accepted, and the story is dark and delightful-much like Palahniuk's recommendations for what to do in the city that gave it life.
