Canales and Guarnido redefine the standards for graphic storytelling, carving striking characters that are both animalistic and intimately human. Be it solving the murder of a famous actress or keeping nuclear weapons out of terrorist hands, Blacksad’s grim work often provides a mirror for real world conflict and human issues, never turning a blind eye to racism, political tensions, or brutally sudden violence. Sticking his nose into mystery after mystery, often getting involved with women almost as dangerous as the criminals he thwarts. Blacksad is constantly up to his ears in trouble. Readers will now be able to experience five of Blacksad’s biggest cases in a single comprehensive volume with new sketchbook material never published in English. The classic hardboiled noir series featuring beloved anthropomorphic cat detective, John Blacksad, celebrates its twentieth year.
