Oklahoma Boy #[nn]

Thomas Gilbert's Oklahoma Boy announces itself with a striking heraldic tableau: two young men stand before an American flag, flanked by dark winged figures and crowned by a bull-skulled emblem bearing the all-seeing eye — imagery that blends Americana with something far more unsettling. Published by Vide Cocagne in 2013, this Franco-Belgian album wears its ambitions boldly on its cover, promising a story where national mythology collides with darker, occult undertones. If you're drawn to comics that treat the American experience as something mythic and strange, this one rewards a closer look.
