In Your Black Friend and Other Strangers, Ben Passmore masterfully tackles s about race, gentrification, the prison system, online dating, gross punks, bad street art, kung fu movie references, beating up God, and lots of other grown-up stuff with refreshing doses of humor and lived relatability.
The title earned Passmore a much-deserved Eisner nomination, Ignatz Award for "Outstanding ," and a coveted spot on NPR's 100 Favorite Graphic Novels list.
The s in this 120-page collection include works previously published by The Nib, VICE, and the As You Were anthology, along with brand new and unreleased material.
These s are essential, humorous, and accessible, told through Passmore's surreal lens in the vibrant full-color hues of New Orleans.
