Week 33 Book 57 : Warbears (collected)

 

Who knew Margaret Atwood wrote comics? I guess this is much more her speed of comic than say the Marvel DC milieu. Covers Canadian pride, set against imperialist invasion from America, alignment with allies shifting during WW2, a comic within a comic and the skewing of male stereotypes, (and added anti-homophobia for good measure). 

Dense dialogue for a comic and some big ideas in only 108 pages, but still if you're going to go and do a comic, it should stand out.
