99. "Sometimes it does feel as though good ideas run out of steam, and I would prefer [as a reader] one comic, which was awesome, to [longer series] that were so-so. I'm a little kid in a candy store on a Wednesday, I like my comics dark and I like them stylish, I like them smart, but I can still read Archie comics when I need to. Clive Barker Goes 3-D For Surreal 'Seduth' Comic Book.
By Caleb Goelner, MTV. com 17 September 2009 (note - full text online at MTV. com). "I have always felt that comics as a medium are still in a relatively early stage in their development - there are so many roads still to be taken. It is a medium which can afford to take risks, and we're taking them.
"This is, in more than one sense, a dream project. It is my first chance to co-produce with my best friend Robb Humphreys on a story that really touches our shared interests in the power of hallucinations and visions. It also brought me together with Chris Monfette, who will certainly be a part of my creative life for many years to come if I have any say in the matter. Add the art of Gabriel, the color of Jay and the amazingly mind-blowing talents of Ray Zone, this fulfills my dream of Seduth completely.

Clive Barker Introduces New Dimension of Horror To Comic Books. By Chris Ryall, IDW Publishing, 18 August 2009. "Most 3D comics are not made for 3D, its a fake-out essentially. With this they have designed the whole thing for 3D. The whole idea of the Fourth is to say, well, if Im trying to create the 4th dimension in a comic, which is 2D, it makes sense to make it a 3D comic because the fourth dimension can be represented by the third, so the whole plot centres around a device which is dimensional-friendly, yeah? The whole fucking thing has been a joy; I mean I think Gabriel did an amazing job on The Great And Secret Show, an amazing job. Monfette, because he had freedoms that Chris Ryall didnt have adapting Great And Secret Show, has written a rich, lovely thing and Gabriels working at the top of his talent.

I agree with you about that track-in, but the double-page spread is spectacular and Im just very excited because comics are still something I adore and they are very cheap. Theyre cheap to produce, theyre quick to produce as well - you dont have this thing about waiting around forever - and, most important, theyre cheap to buy. You know, youll be able to buy this for six bucks.
By Phil and Sarah Stokes, 19 August 2009 (note - full text here ). Chris Monfette. "Seduth is a single-issue comic, a one-shot, neither of which are terms which seem to sufficiently describe what it is weve done. It isnt the beginning of some sprawling mythology - though certainly what happens there is part of one - nor is it some simple, terrifying tale, awash with blood - though certainly it terrifies, and certainly it bleeds. If a comic book can be, in some sense, a poem - if, as Clive first pitched it to me, we can capture the spirit of Dali or Bunuel in 24 pages of artful madness - then perhaps lets call it that. "Clive came to me, quite literally, with nothing.
which is to say that he wanted to create a piece about the essence of nihilism. Sitting at a table across from Clive there is a sensation of tumbling down rabbit holes, of passing through mirrors - fearless and fearful - and for a writer making his first venture into the world of comic books, Clives pitch about a diamond and the terrible things inside it felt a bit like boarding a bus for Weekhawken and getting off at Neverland. Foolishly, I had expected a story - manageable, straightforward, perhaps a bit messy - and what I received was a five-dimensional jigsaw the likes of which could only ever come from the mind of Clive Barker, my friend, whose head and heart, I believe, are one and the same. "It occurred to me there, in that room, that if one was to address the concept of nihilism, one must first address the very nature of form, both physical and metaphysical. Consequently, there are two architects in Seduth - one human, the other decidedly not - and a third character, the title character, who one could best describe as the anti-architect. There is a madman and a plague; there are murders and a birth.
And there is, of course, the diamond. That damn, diseased diamond.
In 24 brilliantly illustrated pages, Seduth flows both from and into the essence of all that Clive has ever explored - the weave and tide of a universe that holds infinite wonder and equal despair. "I walked away from that initial meeting terrified. with only a collection of images (which Clive had crudely sketched), a book of Peter Beards photography (which one might best describe as desperately beautiful) and a set of abstract themes (which were, in retrospect, far grander than my ability to adapt them). But if the virtue of ignorance is that it can, from time to time, allow us, unknowingly, to do the impossible, then over the course of several weeks, we created a script - a surreal assemblage of panels and words that Chris Ryall and IDW bravely agreed to publish - Clives blessing of which stands among the greatest flatteries of my literary life. That Gabriel Rodriguez would give it form, Jay Fotos would give it color and Ray Zone would give it dimension is yet another. ".
By Chris Monfette, e-mail to Phil and Sarah Stokes, 2 July 2009. Chris Ryall. "In working with Clive Barker over the past five years and in adapting one of his books myself, the thing that constantly struck me is how wildly inventive he is, and I've always been eager for him to create something new. With Seduth, where 3-D artwork is essential to the story and presents a complete merging of story and art in a unique way, we finally have that.
