USA magazine #41/42
"L'air vert" is a quietly striking slice-of-life story from 1989, written and drawn entirely by Shary Flenniken, showcasing her distinctive voice and delicate line work. It follows a couple who set up two friends on a blind date, capturing the spark and intimacy of a fleeting connection that ends not in romance, but in mutual clarity about what they don’t want. The cover, by Oscar Chichoni, complements the story’s tone with its subtle, evocative imagery.
In a wry, satirical take on modern romance, two friends set up a blind date between their respective pals, sparking a whirlwind night of chemistry and heat. What begins as a playful experiment in connection takes an unexpectedly honest turn when dawn arrives and both agree—passion isn’t the same as forever.
