Graphic Novels & Trade Paperbacks
Barrel of Monkeys by Jérôme Mulot and Florent Ruppert (Rebus) $19.95 – “…In fact, now that I think of it, Barrel of Monkeys is almost like a warped re-telling of A Zed and Two Noughts, repleate with amputee sexuality, animation techniques, dream-like interiors and grossly unethical behavior. And in all of that, it’s both pretty gruesome and great: a clever hall of mirrors rendered in paper with an understated rotoscope-style line. These are adept comics, doing what the medium can do so sharply it hurts.”-EF
