Graphic novels

摘要

At the great war's centenary, it's time to survey graphic narrative tributes. For younger readers up, Alan Cowsill and Lalit Kumar Sharma's World War One: 1914-1918 (Campfire, 2014) briefly recaps the entire conflict with maps and explanatory tidbits. From the "Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales" series for kids, the excellent Trenches, Treaties, Mud, and Blood (Abrams, 2014) renders the war with Maws-style talking animals plus judicious goofiness leavening the horror. Philippe Glogowski's all-ages, Ypres Memories (T.J. Editions, forthcoming), focuses on recollections haunting an elderly Scottish veteran.
