@photostroller Gestern über ein Graphic Novel gestolpert, dass dir vielleicht gefallen könnte: Die Farbe der Dinge / The Color of Things/ La couleur des choses von Martin Panchaud.
https://martinpanchaud.ch/die-farbe-der-dinge/
Interessanter Stil. Geschichte errinert mich entfernt an "Das Verkaufte Lachen", aber vielleicht täusche ich mich.
Habe es nämlich noch nicht gelesen. Es liegt lesebereit auf meinem Tisch :)

Wundervoll illustrierte Untertreibungen, die ich mir auch von Berichten wünschen würde (Myre, von Claudya Schmidt und Matt W Davis, Splitter-Verlag) @buchstodon @bookstodon

@Terralux @Schiraki @buchstodon @bookstodon ja, Haunter of Dreams gehört in die selbe Welt, Legenden von Yria (statt Chroniken von Yria, das sind die Myre Bücher)

Hey @bookstodon Comics/Graphic Novel/Manga lovers, Here are some reads of late that might interest you:

The Joy of Quitting, Keiler Roberts (Bipolar, Anxiety, Motherhood, Absurdity, Art)

Death Note, Tsugumi Ohba (Intriguing addictive thriller with an unusual premise)

Blue in Green, Ram V, (Interrogation of loss and existential identity, viewed through the prism of music)

Night Fever, Ed Brubaker (Stylish noir, forcing a man to confront who he is, and whether he truly craves a more exciting life)

Barely Functional Adult: It'll All Make Sense Eventually, Meichi Ng (Witty, touching, resonant, as funny as it is painfully insightful)

@softerspace @bookstodon Allie Brosh is a treasure. Hyperbole and a Half was so good. I love Matt Bors, too, though he is completely different, more political and activist-oriented.

Camouflage: The Hidden Lives of Autistic Women by Sarah Bargiela, 2019

Autism in women and girls is still not widely understood, and is often misrepresented or even overlooked. This graphic novel offers an engaging and accessible insight into the lives and minds of autistic women, using real-life case studies.

The charming illustrations lead readers on a visual journey of how women on the spectrum experience everyday life, from metaphors and masking in social situations, to friendships and relationships and the role of special interests. Fun, sensitive and informative, this is a fantastic resource for anyone who wishes to understand how gender affects autism, and how to create safer supportive and more accessible environments for women on the spectrum. Review As a medical comic, an educational comic, it's really well done, imparting knowledge with ease, simple, clear, effective. Using comics for this (and make no mistake, this is, definitely, a comic), is a perfect fit, getting factual information through to many who simply either wouldn't be able to, or more likely, wouldn't wish to, access it through plain text... When it comes to autism, no matter how aware we think we are, there's always more to discover. Which is just what Camouflage does very well, breaking down the subject with a clarity and simplicity, yet without sparing any factual details or the personal experiences of women with autism. I guarantee that you'll finish Camouflage with a better understanding of an important issue. And in that sense, Camouflage is a hugely successful thing... Hopefully, this will be something that will be embraced by schools, libraries, medical practices, and should be an essential read for anyone with autism, or anyone affected by autism.

    Summer is here! School’s out, the pool is open, and new adventures with friends await! But what happens when twelve year old Ty’s anxiety has other plans? From the world of Just Roll With It comes a graphic novel about accepting yourself even when it’s a little scary.

    This amazing graphic novel is a perfect blend of new style and good storytelling!

    Panchaud uses dots for his characters, and they really make the reading experience come alive. The story (a sad little boy fights for his happiness) is not so new, but the telling of it is with a lot of excitement.

    Twee bijzondere nederlandstalige Graphic Novels:

    • "Hoe overleven we" van Francis Bomen uit 2021 en
    • "Stilte na de oorlog" van Nynke Kuipers uit 2024.

    Over hoe bepaalde gebeurtenissen nog generaties later doorwerken... Heftig en dapper om er over te praten, te schrijven, te tekenen.

    This weekend my wife and I both read the graphic novel Us by Sara Soler, which I learned of here on Mastodon. There were so many things in this book we could relate to! (We'd been married for about nine years when my spouse came out to me and started transitioning.) Even if your partner is not trans, there is a lot of value in this little book, to help you understand just a little more about a sliver of trans (and queer) experience.
