ZANADU RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 2/22/12

AFRIKA HC

(W/A) Hermann

The masterpiece by Belgian comics creator Hermann is available in English for the first time! A misanthropic European expatriate, Dario Ferrer, acts as guardian of a Tanzanian wildlife preserve. Accompanied by Charlotte, a naive European journalist, Ferrer discovers a village under fire from mysterious agents of the foreign-backed government. Ferrer and Charlotte must fight not only to protect the preserve, but to expose government corruption-and survive to see another day.

After years of waiting, Dark Horse is finally importing new (to us) Hermann stories, in a beautiful hardcover format! Admired by the likes of Moebius, this belgian comics master is not to be missed by anyone who longs for comics that are treated as true art! RECOMMENDED BY ERIN!
