Imaginatively written and memorably illustrated in black-and-white by Carol Swain, Foodboy is an impressive graphic novel. Set amid overcast Wales with rocky land, Gary the Foodboy shares a sometimes agonizing friendship with Ross, a feral outsider choosing to live upon the margins of society. Dark, gritty, and warily peeling away illusions of humanity, Foodboy is at once chilling and contemplative. Mature themes are present in this engrossing tale of survival and psychological struggle.
