Wide World of Comics

Blacksad Quelque part entre les onbres


As an illustrator, ( which i feel like i always say, but it's true) i cannot help but just watch the visuals more than the text.  But the good thing about this, is that it is in Spanish, so i really cannot pay attention to the text, since i am not fluent in spanish.  BUT, the illustrations are sweet.  I like the style, and i like how the characters are sometimes animals such as a cat or dog.  Which i s weird seeing a cat and a dog work together... since in real life most of them do not.  Without knowing the text, i think its about a criminal investigation in the beginning where the dog and cat are talking about how she died, but seems to argue about what happened. The panels i think are really set up nicely, but as i keep going back looking through what i experienced through this comic, i just cannot get over the illustrations, i am becoming a fan of these.  I am confused at some parts in the comic, one minute the main detective is investigating people  that could of been related to the crime and then one minuet doing some girl showing up with a rose from the guy he was investigating.  Or maybe he was stealing a rose from him and putting a gun in his mouth, i will never know, but i highly doubt that scenario. But i really got lost, i keep coming up with a million things in my head of what the story could be but none of them seem right. I would like to know what this comic is about and what each scene is saying... but other than that i am in love with illustrations and i think this comic is fresh and clean looking that keeps it orderly.
