Top 26 Graphic Novels, Comics & Manga: November 2017
Posted: September 20, 2017
Each month brings another smörgåsbord of sequential art, their creators all hoping to find an appreciative audience and build their reputations. My considered gleanings for November have turned up trumps with some first-rate works worthy of your attention. The French author Julie Maroh, acclaimed for Blue is the Warmest Colour, returns to affairs of the heart in her ensemble piece Body Music. From Japan’s dark, urgent dramas of ‘gekiga’ comes Slum Wolf, a compelling compendium by Japan’s Tadao Tsuge, proving again how varied manga truly are.
I’m also eager anticipating the start of an unconventional graphic mystery, The Case of the Missing Men by Canadian collaborators Kris Bertin and Alexander Forbes, as well as the delayed but now completed Satania by the striking and inimitable couple of bande dessinée, Kerascoët. I hope you will keep stepping outside your comfort zones and exploring with me just how far comics can take you… Take your pick of my PG Tips for November 2017 here…
