INKING WITH BILE

The LA Times looks at the graphic novel, Rebetico.

"There's nothing left but smoke, melancholy, broken plates …," Prudhomme writes late in the book. "We were only little octopuses from the slums, with bile as black as ink." The larger implication, however, is that such little octopuses can have a bit   effect when they tell their stories honestly, creating a space in which an audience can truly recognize itself.

To get this across, Prudhomme re-creates the music deftly, using small panels that echo the darkness, the closeness, of the cafés while also filling them with movement, the movement of patrons dancing, or fighting, or being seduced. Because rebetiko is storytelling music, he highlights the lyrics, layering them atop his images, as if they were part of the atmosphere.
