Todd & Joe Have Issues 09/28/17: Crécy #1
Here’s a tough one for me. This week’s choice, Crecy from Warren Ellis and Raulo Cacares through Avatar Press, is an enigma. And by that I mean it is out of print, a niche graphic novel about a war from the 14th century and Avatar Press’s website is blocked from my work.
Here’s all I got:
A highly trained but under equipped army invades another country due to that country’s perceived threat to home security. The army conducts shock-and-awe raids designed to terrify the populace. This army is soon driven to ground, and vastly outnumbered. The English army has to stand and fight, in Crecy, France. On 26 August 1346, modern warfare changed forever. This is the story of England’s greatest battle.
Any discussion, thoughts, feelings, criticisms of this week’s selection can be placed below in the comments section. As well as suggestions about future choices for one shot issues to add to our list.
