![]() ![]() Sidenote- my aunt used to run a store that sold Afrocentric antiques, and I was reminded of this while reading Yohancé. Interesting enough, right? I’m a sucker for anything relating to Atlantis, or any underwater environment, so I was screaming when he visited water planet. ![]() We aren’t given a backstory as to how our protagonist ended up in his current predicament but we’re too busy enjoying the adventure to worry about that.Just understand that, as the author puts it, that this is the story of a master thief who gets caught up in an Intergalactic conflict that reveals some deep dark truth about our hero (sound familiar?). The artwork is truly splendid and does the does this genre of fiction justice. So many get the “space opera” thing wrong, so I was extremely relieved and overjoyed that this wasn’t the case. After MONTHS of waiting, Paul Louise Julie’s space opera epic Yohancé is finally on shelves! And by shelves, I do mean iBook shelves for Free 99 (and amazon books for 9.99)! In Louise-Julie’s own words, this graphic novel “is a Space Opera Graphic Novel inspired by a fully African Aesthetic.” While this first issue was a very quick read, it’s certainly drew me in. ![]()
