Individual Voices: Patrick Istvan

Max Clotfelter “Andros”

Max Clotfelter’s artwork caught my eye from the moment I saw it. I have a bit of a fascination with the darker side of comic books and art. His art style embodies a very interesting take on things. The meatloaf type form his characters take gives me a sensation of boiling down to a sinister oneness.

Almost none of Clotfelter’s characters have straight lines in their depictions. I feel like this also emphasizes the imperfect quality of their personalities, as they are almost always doing depraved things in the mini stories. His artwork goes hand in hand with the stories he tells in his comic books. It is a great embodiment of the dark subjects that Clotfelter touches on with his stories.
