Baloney: A Tale In 3 Symphonic Acts #[nn]

A striking crimson cover sets the tone for this Drawn & Quarterly release, where a suspended pig carcass — rendered in muted pink against the bold red backdrop — hangs like a centerpiece, its twisted strands dangling beneath decorative ribbon banners. Pascal Blanchet's graphic design sensibility is immediately apparent in the clean, almost theatrical composition, framing the story's promise as a "tale in 3 symphonic acts" with real visual drama. For fans of European-influenced graphic storytelling, this 2008 release feels like an invitation to something genuinely unusual.
