Con la Tierra ya deshabitada y citada sólo como referencia histórica, nos adentramos en un mundo futuro con dos continentes y dos civilizaciones muy distintas: Ónfalos y Crisis. La primera, habitada sólo por mujeres. Entre ambos continentes un océano, una inmensidad para sus dos protagonistas: Julia y Marcela, que, sin embargo, tienen en su destino confluir en una historia épica, llena de búsqueda de identidad y al mismo tiempo, de fronteras donde ésta (la identidad) se borra por completo. En Tras esa montaña está la orilla, de nuestra invitada Eva Cid (Ed. Amor de madre), encontramos seres sintéticos, gobiernos autoritarios, comités de filosofía, tecnología muy avanzada de transporte y teletrabajo, tecnología de transgénesis… Elementos de CiFi con referentes claros y también aportes muy novedosos en esta novela que nos sirve de contexto para reflexionar sobre este género habitualmente distópico y su sentido en plena pandemia. Con Víctor Gómez, seguimos enganchados a la buena ciencia ficción más allá de la montaña como la saga Mirror (Ed. Astiberri) de Enma Ríos y Hwei Lim y Senti3n (Ed. Panini) de Gabriel Walta y Jeff Lemire. Escuchar audio

We helpen je even met het antwoord: NERGENS anders!

It's Wednesday, which means that the Doctoral Duo return to share their recommendations of recent releases! And this week, Gwen and Derek focus on three exciting, yet quite diverse, new titles. They begin with Nick Dranso's Beverly (Drawn & Quarterly), a series of six stories set in a Midwest suburban landscape, where individuals grapple with friendships, alienation, and the uncertainties of growing up. Gwen notes the dark poignancy of these narratives, character studies that often make the reader uncomfortable and made all the more effective through Dranso's clean lines and simple illustrative style. What struck Derek was the book's construction. This isn't a "traditional" collection of separate stories -- something like you would find, for example, in Eleanor Davis's How to Be Happy or Adrian Tomine's Killing and Dying -- but a text more akin to a short-story cycle, a collection of discrete stories, each of which could stand on its own, but all interconnected in such a way that a fuller meaning is generated by their textual proximity. Derek's term for this hybrid form within comics is "graphic cycle," and a classic example of this would be Will Eisner's A Contract with God. All of the narratives in Beverly connect in some way, and over time, through a few key characters. This debut graphic novel from Dranso is this week's highlight for both Gwen and Derek. Next, they check out the first issue Emma Rios and Hwei Lim's Mirror #1 (Image Comics). This story is part of the 8House universe, and the two begin with a brief discussion of that context. Both enjoyed this first issue -- especially Lim's elaborate design and watercolor art, which is truly stunning -- but found the setup a little confusing, at times. As Derek points out, this first issue lacks the amount of exposition necessary to fully grasp what is going on, although it's assumed that many of these narrative questions will be answered in the issues to follow. While both cohosts appreciate Mirror, they feel that those prone to trade waiting might want to wait until the complete arc is collected. Finally, Gwen and Derek wrap up with a look at Ryan Ferrier and Daniel Bayliss's Kennel Block Blues #1 (BOOM! Studios), the first of a four-issue limited series. This is a wild anthropomorphic tale about a kennel as prison, and about a protagonist unable to deal with reality on the inside. Oliver is not sure why he is sent to the Jackson State Kennel, and in times of uncertainty he retreats into a happy place, a technicolor fantasy world of dancing figures and catchy tunes reminiscent of the old Merrie Melodies or Fleischer brothers cartoons. As with Mirror, the art stands out in Kennel Block Blues, with Bayliss adeptly handling the transition between the dark kennel and Oliver's song-happy fantasy world. But Ferrier's writing in this first issue is equally impressive, providing just enough setup to satisfy, yet leaving the reader with eager expectations for the next installment.
