Hey guys, I wanted to bring attention to a new publisher and a interesting story they are bringing into the American comic scene. Magnetic Press is a new publisher out of California that is bringing over a lot of comic from foreign markets that have a lot of critical acclaim. The book I'm making particular reference to in this post is a French comic called Naja by JD Morvan and art by Bengal. They have begun releasing the series in 10 parts on Comixology, so feel free to go there to give it a look. Also a HC is coming soon that looks to be very high quality. Here are a few pics to give you idea of the comic and a link to Magnetic Press. www.magnetic-press.com/naja-trailer-and-giveaway-contest/
Once I saw you said it was originally a french title, it totally makes sense. Compared to other french media I have gotten into (mostly just comics and video games) this book has a lot of the same sensibilities (not sure this is the right word to use). The story feels very french to me, or at the very least very european, and the art is kind of a weird mix of Matteo Scalera and anime which I am digging quite a bit (I am a fan of both).
