Review Quotes : Those wanting a visual tour de force and an exciting exercise in graphic storytelling need look no further.-- \"Booklist\" Review Quotes : An uncommonly vicious swashbuckling romp, absolutely entertaining and fantastically illustrated.-- \"Library Journal (starred review)\" Review Quotes : A good old-fashioned 18th-century pirate yarn filled with depravity, random violence, cruelty, and laughs. The story's cheerfully nihilistic approach may not be for all tastes, but it serves up a visceral satire for those that can stomach it.-- \"Publishers Weekly\" Review Quotes : Schrauwen is one of the most provocative creators in the world of comics today.-- \"NPR Books\" Publisher Marketing : Guy is no master mariner, with a clipped red (or black) beard. He's just an ordinary member of the crew -- able enough, but also a lazy, cowardly liar, a drunkard, and a thief. His story is told in two allegorical parts: \"The Blowout\" and \"The Hangover.\" Three contemporary comics titans, Belgian Olivier Schrauwen ( Parallel Lives ) and the French duo Ruppert and Mulot ( The Perineum Technique ) collaborate to bring you the best pictorial and narrative elements of the great tales of the sea -- bright colors, grand battles, gallows humor -- in this tour de force of black comedy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 184 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2020-04-07\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fantagraphics Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46476865208451,"sku":"9781683962892","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/6830\/8099\/files\/9781683962892.jpg?v=1770283456","url":"https:\/\/sebink.com\/products\/9781683962892","provider":"Sebink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
