Bibliophilia: Red: A Haida Manga – Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas

Red: A Haida Manga – Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas

Enjoyed this one a lot. Story was fine and absolutely loved the inventiveness of the approach. Instead of the usual boxes and straight lines inherent in the comic book tradition, the author/artist used the gorgeous curves inherent in the NWC artistic tradition to separate areas. If you were to tear out all the pages and lay them out in a pattern, it would form an image of its own.
