Two Quick Items: Turgeon and Groensteen

Two things I've been meaning to post:

Two weeks ago I posted at The Panelists on a few books from the Quebecois publisher Colosse. One of the books, Jardin Botanique by David Turgeon (Colosse, 2011) is an abstract comic. Here's a page. Read more at the link.

Also... French comic theorist Thierry Groensteen's new book came out this month. It's called Bande Dessinée et Narration (PUF, 2011) and includes a brief section concerning abstract comics. He includes a full page reproduction from my "Flying Chief" from the anthology. Here's the Amazon.fr page for the book. You can "look inside" the book and check out the relevant pages (~page 12).

voici un croquis de Mœbius (Jean Giraud), de Chaos (édition anglais, Epic, 1991). je pense qu'il est un unique, pas une partie d'une série.
