Living Statues
Creator: Emily Blair
32 pages, black and white, $3.50
So? Blair won a grant from the Xeric Foundation to self-publish this tale of a bored art history instructor who struggles with his feelings of inadequacy as he leads tours through Florence. Blair’s art is dark, detailed and terrific, giving a lovely contrast between the intricate architecture and art of the ancient city and the human story that unfolds within it. This also is a nice-looking book; a self-contained story in a single comic book that is a satisfying reading experience all on its own, from the graphic design to the paper stock. Grade: A-
