Wrinkles (2016) (digital)

Retired bank manager Emilio, suffering from Alzheimer’s, is taken to an assisted living home by his son. Confused and disoriented by his new surroundings, he finds unexpected support in his roommate Miguel, a brash rogue and overconfident ladies’ man. Together, they employ clever tricks to keep the doctors from noticing Emilio’s ongoing deterioration — and keep him from being transferred to the dreaded confinement of the top floor of the facility. (“Better to die than to end up there.”) Their determination to stay active as individuals and maintain their dignity culminates in a nighttime escape and joyride and adds a dash of adventure to their otherwise tedious day-to-day routine. While for some residents, the home is a place to wind down their lives, for Emilio and Miguel it becomes, in a quirky way, a new beginning. Created by Paco Roca.

The Ogre Gods

Petit is the son of the Ogre King. Scarcely larger than a mere human, he bears the brunt of family degeneration which makes each generation smaller than the previous one due to their inbreeding. His father wants him dead, but his mother sees in him the possible regeneration of the family since he could mate with a human as the Founder of the line once did. She then entrusts him to Aunt Desdee, the oldest of the family, who was dishonored because of her love for humans, and has become a recluse in a wing of the immense castle. But against his mother's wish, she will try to raise Petit, contrary to the usual family way ... Torn between the violent impulses he inherited and the humanistic education he received from Desdée, where will Petit find his place? And will he survive the voracious appetite of his family? by Hubert (story), Bertrand Gatignol (Drawings).
