Description
It's business as usual at the residence of Titus and his motley crew. Champagne baths, reckless scientific experimentations, casual littering. It's all fun and games, until their house decides it has had enough and goes looking for a better life... leaving the gang without a place to call their own! Will Titus and his friends find a new home, or convince their old one to come back?
Thom shows an ever-growing mastery of visual storytelling in this brilliant follow-up to his 2017 debut VII. Once again eschewing words altogether, the Montréal-based author channels the chaotic yet precise slapstick of Chuck Jones' Looney Tunes while infusing it with a subtle sense of existential dread. Casa Rodeo is about finding one's place in the world, both literally and figuratively.
About the author
Thomas Blais-Leblanc was born in Montréal in 1993. He's been drawing comics since an early age, and many of his characters have been following him around for years. He studied cartooning at UQO, and it was during his final year at school that he started work on VII, which eventually became his first professional book and which won the prestigious Réal-Fillion Award for Best Debut in 2018. His most recent book is Casa Rodeo.
