Reddit reviews Slaughtermatic

> Any big comicbook authors that have also written prose books?

Warren Ellis has a couple. His first is Crooked Little Vein, which reads just like Warren Ellis. Dead Pig Collector is also an excellent short. I haven't cracked into Gun Machine, but it's in my readlist.

For a book that reads like a comic, Steve Aylett is a wild and frenetic writer that reads like an action comic. Slaughtermatic is my go to example.

Slaughtermatic by Steve Aylett

Absurdist time-traveling bank heist gone wrong.

Such a thing is featured in Slaughtermatic (don't worry, the cops have them & they're the bad guys).
