Article: PG Previews For October 2012
Posted: August 26, 2012
This October, while Marvel and DC offer us such essential household implements as the Captain America’s Shield Bottle Opener and the Watchmen Rorschach Toaster (no, I am not making these tacky merchandise items up), fortunately there are more than enough quality comics to engage your interest, from new comic-book serials to chunky graphic novels, from Anglo-American creations to translations of Austrian, Danish, French, Japanese and Spanish gems, from classics like The Heap to debuts by brand-new authors. Of special note this month is Frederik Peeters’ mind-warping Pachyderme, whose original artworks will be exhibited during the Comica Festival this November, with Frederik hopefully making a return visit to London. Bryan Talbot’s third Grandville adventure is another highlight and he will also be a Comica guest, where we hope to hold the world premiere of a new documentary movie about his life and career. Fellow Brits Steven Appleby, Luke Pearson, Jon McNaught and Will Morris are also being invited to promote their great new books as part of our Comica @ Foyles season. I hope you’ll find an item or two here to suit your taste - happy comics-reading! Read my PG Previews here…
