R.I.P. 1985-2004 Thomasa Otta to blisko dwadziescia niewiarygodnych opowiesci o morderstwach, samobójstwach, przesladowaniach, terrorze, zbrodniach, problemach malzenskich i atomowej zagladzie. Komiks ten jest obszernym zbiorem dotychczasowych prac szwajcarskiego rysownika, filmowca, muzyka, mistrza grozy i czarnego humoru. Zawiera calosc jego trzech nowelowych albumów (Tales of Error, Greetings from Hellville, Dead End) oraz krótkie historie, które pojawialy sie w antologiach i magazynach, w tym rzecz przygotowana do scenariusza Davida B., autora Rycerzy swietego Wita. ,,Ponury, makabryczny, chory, cyniczny, niepokojacy" - takie przymiotniki czesto slyszy sie w kontekscie twórczosci Thomasa Otta. W jego komiksowych opowiesciach juz od pierwszej chwili wiadomo, ze stanie sie cos zlego i ze nie ma od tego ucieczki. Potem zas czytelnik jest stopniowo wciagany coraz glebiej w bagno. Groza tych historii nie wynika z nadnaturalnych sil - demonów, upiorów, wampirów - jest natomiast konsekwencja ludzkich slabosci i wad: glupoty, bezmyslnosci, chciwosci, próznosci. Tu platny morderca zostanie przechytrzony przez cyrkowego magika, czlonek Ku Klux Klanu pozna prawdziwe znaczenie magii voodoo, a walizka pelna pieniedzy stanie sie katalizatorem wielu nieszczesc. A to zaledwie kilka przykladów ,,codziennych porcji koszmaru", jakie serwuje nam Ott. Komiksowe historie Thomasa Otta nie sa pozbawione ironii i humoru. Jest to jednak humor wyjatkowo czarny. Tak, jak plansze szwajcarskiego rysownika, który stosuje niezwykla technike: z arkuszy papieru pokrytych gruba warstwa czarnego tuszu wydrapuje przy pomocy japonskiego noza kazda kreske. Ich setki ukladaja sie w porazajacy precyzja rysunek. W swojej twórczosci Thomas Ott siega po sprawdzone gatunki: dreszczowiec, horror, science fiction, czarny kryminal. Dzieki nim latwiej dociera do podswiadomych leków naszych i swoich. Jak mówi: ,,Moja praca ma charakter egzorcyzmu. Za kazdym razem, gdy ukoncze jakies opowiadanie, czuje ulge". Czy poczujecie ja równiez Wy??
