I'm a huge fan of Derek Kirk Kim. The award-winning graphic novelist is the author of Same Difference, Good as Lily (with Jesse Hamm), The Eternal Smile (with Gene Luen Yang) and writer/director behind the webseries Mythomania. I highly recommend checking out all of his work, including his latest book Tune: Still Life, which is out on shelves this week from First Second.
The book is the long-awaited second installment of the Tune series, a weird, quirky tale following the misadventures of Andy Go, a slacker art school dropout who finds himself recruited as the main attraction in an alien zoo. Like I said, it's weird, but also hilarious, surreal and sweet, and something that could only come from the genius mind of Derek Kirk Kim (with art by Les McClaine).
