A Gunn little read. I was hoping for more from the concept.

De vliegende hel heb ik net gelezen? Ik lees steeds meer, vaak Europese, graphic novels en vraag me vaak af of ik gewoon high moet zijn of aan het trippen moet zijn om sommige van de boeken te snappen. Want deze begon interessant (al vroeg ik me wel af of Hulk nou hond of big was (ik dacht gewoon big) en waarom hij kon praten) met een expeditie over een ijsvlakte die blijkbaar Europa is, um was is denk ik een beter idee. Ze zijn op zoek naar resten van vroeger, wat er is gebeurd, wie er woonden. Nou ja, deze archeologen waren best waardeloos dat ze het concept museum niet kenden, en dat ze gebaseerd op kunstwerken hun ideeën maakten die vaak zo erg vreemd waren (nee ze kunnen niet lezen/schrijven... ondertussen hebben veel kunstwerken tekst). Ik had toch meer verwacht van archeologen.
En dan gebeuren er dingen waardoor dit boek een Octarine (aka fantasy) tag krijgt want mijn hemel... wat de actual fuck?
Maar de art was zeker mooi gedaan. En daar ging ik me maar op focussen. Want dat was beter.

Un grupo de investigadores en una expedición en una Europa postapocalíptica cubierta de hielo. Una historia breve que mezcla ciencia ficción, arte y humor.

An interesting read. I went in without knowing anything about the graphic novel, but I enjoyed slowly figuring out the plot line. The representation of art was intriguing and I wonder if something like this did happen to the world, would people forget all of history and history of art?

Bu kadar müthiş bir fikir nasıl ziyan edilir çizgiromanı.

Quirky and odd. de Crecy's Glacial Period is brimming with intrigue and strange characters. That being said, the overall narrative never seems to fully live up to its initial premise and potential.
The art is memorable and clean, the atmosphere strong and chilly.
Overall, Good not great.

I liked the way to interpret the Louvre collection and give it a will of its own.
