If you are looking for an excellent collection of comics, you only need to check out Blacksad: The Collected Stories that arrives from Dark Horse this week.
BLACKSAD: THE COLLECTED STORIES
Writer: Juan Diaz Canales
Artist: Juanjo Guarnido
Format: TPB
Price: $29.99
Celebrate Blacksad’s twentieth year with this comprehensive volume featuring five of the biggest cases.
Blacksad is constantly up to his ears in trouble. Sticking his nose into mystery after mystery, often getting involved with women almost as dangerous as the criminals he thwarts. Be it solving the murder of a famous actress or keeping nuclear weapons out of terrorist hands, Blacksad’s grim work often provides a mirror for real world conflict and human issues, never turning a blind eye to racism, political tensions, or brutally sudden violence.
This volume collects the following Blacksad stories: Somewhere Within the Shadows, Arctic Nation, Red Soul, A Silent Hell, Amarillo; and the comic shorts “Spit at the Sky” and “Like Cats and Dogs”.
This is really a fantastic series (for adults), and you really owe it to yourself to add it to your collection this week.
