“Myth Shmyth!”

In "Myth Shmyth!", Lisa Trusiani and artists Barb Rausch and John Lucas craft a playful, introspective journey through myth and imagination, beginning with a thoughtful look at the cave paintings of Lascaux. The story unfolds with a whimsical four-panel sequence of a chicken hatching from an egg, then invites readers to explore their own creativity—right there on the page. Cover by Charles Burns adds a distinct, offbeat flair to this inventive, self-reflective comic.
