Babel #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"A Rooster's Tale 1" from Babel #1 (2004) is a haunting, deeply personal story by David B., who handles every aspect of the artwork and lettering with striking precision. Through the fragmented lens of memory and dream, it traces the early life of Jean-Christophe, focusing on his younger brother’s haunting perception of epileptic seizures intertwined with the lingering shadow of the Biafran war. The cover, also by David B., sets a somber, introspective tone that matches the interior’s intimate, evocative style.
In "Babel," Jean-Christophe’s childhood seizures become a haunting bridge between memory, dream, and the turbulent reality of the Biafran war, as seen through the eyes of his younger brother. The story unfolds with quiet intensity, weaving personal trauma with historical echoes in a narrative that lingers long after the final page.
