New York Tomes bestselling novelist Chuck Palahniuk and acclaimed artist Cameron Stewart have collaborated for one of the most highly anticipated comic book and literary events of 2015--the return of Tyler Durden. The first rule of Fight Club 2 might be not to talk about it, but Fight Club 2 is generating international headlines and will introduce a new generation of readers to Project Mayhem.
Praise for the comics that comprise Fight Club 2:
"At turns deeply poignant and very funny, Palahniuk's freakish fables capture a twisted zeitgeist and add an oddly inspirational and subversive voice to the contemporary canon.... In the post-9/11 present, a hyperactive, Internet-obsessed, war- and recession-weary America apparently needs Tyler again."-THE ATLANTIC
"The book is fantastic, my highest recommendation.... Excellent work by Cameron Stewart and David Mack, and by our awesome friends at Dark Horse Comics."-Brian Michael Bendis
"If Tyler Durden needed a resurgence, there's no time like the present for his return... Fight Club 2 is a comic that taps back into everything great about the source material, and one that makes Tyler Durden's warm nihilistic embrace a welcome draw back into a familiar world of cynicism, violence, and anarchy...."Tyler Lives," and I couldn't be happier by the prospect of more bedlam."-NEWSARAMA
"Palahniuk is delivering a worthy sequel to his most beloved story."-THE NERDIST
"Entertaining."-COMIC BOOK RESOURCES
"Excellent."-THE BEAT
"An amazing piece of work. You do not want to miss out on this."-COMICVINE
"Perfect."-FORCES OF GEEK
"We have a worthy sequel on our hands.... A must read."-COMICOSITY
"Cameron Stewart truly outdoes himself on every level in this book."-BLOODY DISGUSTING
"Clever and beautiful."-COMICS ALLIANCE
About the Author
Written in stolen moments under truck chassis and on park benches to a soundtrack of The Downward Spiral and Pablo Honey,Fight Clubcame into existence. The adaptation ofFight Clubwas a flop at the box office, but achieved cult status on DVD. The film’s popularity drove sales of the novel. Chuck put out two novels in 1999,SurvivorandInvisible Monsters.Choke, published in 2001, became Chuck’s first New York Times bestseller. Chuck’s work has always been infused with personal experience, and his next novel,Lullaby, was no exception. Chuck credits writingLullabywith helping him cope with the tragic death of his father.Diaryand the non-fiction guide to Portland,Fugitives and Refugees, were released in 2003. While on the road in support ofDiary, Chuck began reading a short story entitled 'Guts,' which would eventually become part of the novelHaunted.In the years that followed, he continued to write, publishing the bestsellingRant, Snuff, Pygmy, Tell-All, a 'remix' of Invisible Monsters, Damned, and most recently,Doomed.Chuck also enjoys giving back to his fans, and teaching the art of storytelling has been an important part of that. In 2004, Chuck began submitting essays to ChuckPalahniuk.net on the craft of writing. These were 'How To' pieces, straight out of Chuck's personal bag of tricks, based on the tenants of minimalism he learned from Tom Spanbauer. Every month, a “Homework Assignment” would accompany the lesson, so Workshop members could apply what they had learned. (all 36 of these essays can currently be found on The Cult's sister-site, LitReactor.com).Then, in 2009, Chuck increased his involvement by committing to read and review a selection of fan-written stories each month. The best stories are currently set to be published inBurnt Tongues, a forthcoming anthology, with an introduction written by Chuck himself.His next novel,Beautiful You, is due out in October 2014.
