Bayou - Tapa blanda

"Tons of new and exciting projects to enjoy." "Spellbinding...powerful stuff, filled with hope and hate and trust and betrayal." "Bayou, which tackles racism and violence in 1930s Mississippi, is as hypnotic as it is unsettling." "Zuda Comics has developed a strong and entertaining online community that provides both creators and comic book fans a place to be themselves." "Beautiful artwork partnered with a powerful story has drawn BAYOU comparisons to the lush film Pan's Labyrinth. If you thought you'd never pick up a comic in your life, this one may be the right kick to your cerebellum."

Written by Jeremy Love Art and cover by Jeremy Love "BAYOU, which tackles racism and violence in 1930s Mississippi, is as hypnotic as it is unsettling." - Wired The first book from the original webcomics imprint of DC Comics is here! South of the Mason-Dixon Line lies a strange land of gods and monsters; a world parallel to our own, born from centuries of slavery, civil war, and hate. Lee Wagstaff is the daughter of a black sharecropper in the Depression-era town of Charon, Mississippi. When Lily Westmoreland, her white playmate, is snatched by agents of an evil creature known as Bog, Lee's father is accused of kidnapping. Lee's only hope is to follow Lily's trail into this fantastic and frightening alternate world. Along the way she enlists the help of a benevolent, blues-singing swamp monster called Bayou. Together, Lee and Bayou trek across a hauntingly familiar Southern Neverland, confronting creatures both benign and malevolent, in an effort to rescue Lily and save Lee's father from being lynched. BAYOU VOL. 1 collects the first four chapters of the critically acclaimed webcomic series by Glyph Award nominee Jeremy Love. Advance-solicited; on sale May 27 - 8.375" x 6", FC, 160 pg, $14.99 US
