Frank Won’t Eat His Spinach

I haven’t read any comics by Frédéric Boilet, but CC editor-at-large Frank Santoro has, and he doesn’t like them.
He and Derik Badman got into an interesting conversation about Boilet’s Yukiko’s Spinach in the thread following Badman’s equally interesting review, and since Frank has decided not to write about the book for CC, I thought I’d link to it here.

When I picked up this book in the store where I work to have a flip through it left me cold and I put it back on the shelf straight away. There is something instantly repulsive about it. Checking out the kind of person who buys this book is far more interesting.
I think I’ll try and read it because of this post though, so I may come back with more musings soon.
