Some of my favourite reads from 2021 were actually published in 2021 (or end-2020) and my grabbing them 'early' (by my standards) is thanks to them being works by personal favourite writer-artists.
In this video I talk about Farewell Brindavoine by Jaques Tardi, Goodnight, Hem by Jason, Child Star by Brian "Box" Brown, and Poison Flowers and Pandemonium by Richard Sala, all unique, idiosyncratic works by people I try to read everything I can by.
