ED PISKORORIGINAL SLIPCASE ART FOR VOLUMES 3 & 4 OF THE HIP HOP FAMILY TREE, 2015 Pencil and ink with numerous small printed acrylic overlays on stiff paper (two joined sheets, overall 10 by 22 inches); joined on verso with three pieces of tape. "This piece was inspired by the Hernandez brothers’ cover to Love and Rockets Vol. I #50. It was originally done for my second Free Comic Book Day comic. On a Friday, Eric Reynolds and I discovered we needed a cover by Monday. I spent that day looking through my stuff for inspiration hoping to find a beautiful, single character composition to steal, but once I saw the cover to L&R #50 I put on the coffee and turned my phone off for the weekend." From Fantagraphics, the publisher:"Hip Hop Family Tree Book 3: 1983-1984. The third volume of the popular webcomic tells the true story of hip-hoppers The Beastie Boys, Run DMC, The Fat Boys, and many more. Ed Piskor’s acclaimed graphic novel series continues! Book 3 highlights Run DMC’s rise to fame and introduces unassailable acts like Whodini, The Fat Boys, Slick Rick, and Doug E Fresh. The Beastie Boys become a rap group.
