Chris Garver/Horitomo

Ever since the initial printing sold out years ago (within weeks of release), Afterlife Volume II has been one of our most requested titles for reprinting. And, although we have dropped some limited sales of the original books, we are finally ready to announce that the wishes have been answered, and a new edition is on its way.

The second volume in our flagship series, we wanted to build on the previous success of the first volume and produce a tattoo book of depth and quality that had never been seen before.  We have over 100 pages of interviews and photos to shine a light on the life and works of Horitomo and Chris Garver stacked inside a staggering book over 400 pages in length. 

Both of these world-renowned artists went above and beyond in their willingness to share the methodology behind their respective creative processes. By letting us photograph their sketchbooks, drawings, tracings, color studies, and more, the reader gets an instructive and insightful look at how much effort goes into every tattoo and decision they make. 

For this new edition, we did not change anything in terms of content. We felt that it was best to stay true to the original text and photography that was in the first printing since it was such a pivotal publication for us. However, we had to bring some new heat to the table, so we decided the new edition would be a hardcover and would feature an all-new cover designed by the incomparable Cherish Chang.

Regardless of the aesthetic changes, one pivotal thing has stayed the same: this book changes the way you think about tattoos.
