THE BLOG AT THE CROSSROADS
Top 18 Comics, Graphic Novels & Manga: July 2017
Posted: May 5, 2017
I’ve been waiting since it was first published in French for Chloe Cruchaudet’s Mauvais Genre, her sensual and searing indictment of the First World War, and how one brave objector attempts to evade its butchery, to appear in English. And finally it has, from Knockabout Comics as Deserter’s Masquerade- and still in time to deepen our empathy for so-called deserters amid the current centenary remembrances.
This month also brings some ravishing art books on geniuses like Crumb, Kirby and Moebius, and faithful or playful interpretations of great novels by Charlotte Bronte, Pearl S. Buck (by Nick Bertozzi, below) and Sax Rohmer, as well as some worthwhile debuts and classic reprints. I hope you’ll find some comics to enjoy among my latest PG Tips here…
