The condopocalypse is engulfing Toronto and a dynamic duo of gender fluid superheroes is all that's left to stop it.

Like many cities around the world, Toronto is undergoing a transformation: fuelled by white-hot market, its neighbourhoods are being razed and replaced by luxury condos and the fabric of the city is being remade. Against this backdrop, Eric Kostiuk Williams presents his pseudo-science fiction tale of two primeval agents of retribution.

Infused with art history, urban theories, gender politics, and the buoyancy and escapism of disco, Condo Heartbreak Disco is a melancholic tale with a backbeat.

A comic nonpareil, the closest thing being if John Waters were enlisted to direct the next Marvel movie, Condo Heartbreak Disco is a story pitting epic super heroics against the death stare trajectory of late Capitalism.

Eric Kostiuk Williams is a Toronto-based cartoonist and illustrator. His debut autobiographical work Hungry Bottom Comics was nominated for the 2013 Doug Wright Spotlight Award, and each issue of the series was selected for The Best American Comics' Notable Books of 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively. Recent commercial clients include Joe Fresh, the Drake Hotel, Xtra! Magazine, and the Alliance for South Asian AIDS Prevention.
