Are You Willing to Die for the Cause? #[nn]

Chris Oliveros brings 1960s Québec to vivid, unsettling life in this Drawn & Quarterly graphic work, whose cover sets the tone immediately: against a dark, confetti-scattered background, wooden crates packed with dynamite sticks burn with lit fuses, alongside what appears to be a metal safe and scattered explosive materials — all tumbling through space with an almost anarchic energy. The bold title question, Are You Willing to Die for the Cause?, hangs over the scene with real weight, promising a story steeped in the tension and radicalism of a turbulent decade. For anyone drawn to historically grounded comics that don't shy away from difficult questions, this 2024 release looks like a genuinely compelling place to start.
