Troy Little has a great new graphic novel that was released two weeks ago. Chiaroscuro: Patchwork Book 1, is the story of Steven Patch who is “living an introspective life of a twenty something artist: drinking too much and complaining about his situation and doing nothing to improve it.” He has a single blank canvas that he never works on.
It is part comedy, part mystery, and part ghost story. It is a beautifully drawn book and tells an interesting story that ends in mystery while setting up a what I hope will be book two in the series. I really enjoyed this story; my only complaint is I wish I didn’t have to wait for book two. Chiaroscuro is published by IDW Publishing.
