Review – A Family Matter by Will Eisner
A Family Matter depicts a dysfunctional family that that is too real for comfort. As we learn more about the characters in particular the patriarch Poppa and the long dead Momma, we despair about the reach of people who should never have been parents. This graphic novel is a challenging read but worth it.
Review – Kindred by Octavia E. Butler (A Graphic Novel Adaptation)
Kindred is about about Dana Franklin a black woman from the 1970’s who keeps accidentally travelling back in time and meeting with her slave-owning ancestor. Don’t imagine what happens, pick up up this graphic novel to read and see what this journey is like. You will feel all the feels.
Review – Hematite by Victoria Maderna and Federico Piatti
Hermatite is a magical read, with all the classic vampire essentials, ending on a cliff hanger which leaves you quietly pacing, eager for the next instalment.
