About the series
From 2004, Craig Thompson’s Carnet de Voyage is a single-issue travelogue published by Top Shelf, collecting the sketchbook observations and diary entries from his European book tour. Rendered in Thompson’s expressive pen-and-ink style, the comic captures fleeting moments, landscapes, and encounters with a warm, intimate immediacy. It stands as a personal, unpolished companion piece to his graphic novel Blankets, offering readers a candid glimpse into the artist’s creative process and travels.
