Microcosm (2018)

They're spots... spots that speak, think, judge, talk about everything and nothing... Depressive spots, euphoric spots, racist spots, swinger spots, spots that change their hue while remaining resolutely off-color. Manu Larcenet brings to life a large family of spots in a series of biting, caustic, hilarious strips.

The Front (2018) 

Here, no main characters or heroes, The Front portrays the soldier reduced to its simplest expression: the individual caught in the turmoil of the Great War. The soldier, whatever side he is in, knows every day: shells, gas, noise, waiting, permission, fear ... death.

Industrial (2018)

In Industrial, Zezelj tells two stories—one of a disillusioned stoker on a steamship who finds himself part of an invisible group of workers that live meager lives in contrast to the rich and powerful. He becomes drawn into various groups of dissention that leads to his involvement in a violent busted strike and a failed attempt as a suicide bomber. In a second story, a woman factory worker, like the stoker, is isolated and marginalized. After being drugged and raped by a wealthy industrialist, she plans and succeeds with her revenge. Zezelj’s metaphorical use of animals cleverly inserted into the plot and the stark urban settings reveal a painstaking narrative skill in presenting a glimpse into lives caught in the squalor of capitalism.
