Welcome to BookGN.com

A collection of the cartoonist's short works that lead the reader through unexpected turns of plot and unusual character portraits.
Exit Wounds - a tale at once mystery and romance - introduced North American readers to the colorful and tightly woven narrative by Rutu Modan and was included in Time and Entertainment Weekly's "best of" lists. Jamilti and Other Stories collects the cartoonist's short works that lead the reader through unexpected turns of plot and unusual character portraits.
Some are darkly fantastical and unsettling, such as the unraveling of a serial-killer murder mystery, or her accounts of an infatuated plastic surgeon and his sanitarium, and a mother back from the dead with dubious healing powers. Others are more attuned to surprising discoveries that shape personal identity, as in the story of a tragic past that lies within a family's theme hotel, or that of a struggling musician who hopes an upcoming gig will be his big break. In "Jamilti," Modan addresses political violence with a suicide bombing that shakes up a day in the lives of a young couple.

Written by Eisner-nominated writer Simon Spurrier (The Spire, X-Men: Legacy) and illustrated by Dylan Burnett (Interceptor), Weavers is a twisted blend of Lovecraftian horrors and mafia family drama that explores the unnerving effects of power and addiction. In the aftermath of a gang-related attack, Sid Thyme becomes an unlikely new addition to the Weavers, a brutal East Coast crime family. Members of this syndicate are bound to loyalty thanks to the supernatural spiders inside each of them, granting them powerful and grotesque abilities. Once he realizes what he's capable of, Sid sets out to uncover the truth behind the mysterious attack, counter to the group's objectives. Collects the complete limited series.
