Go, Look: ACBD’s Must-Reads 2007
Shaun Tan, Christophe Blain, Lewis Trondheim and Enki Bilal are among those creators on the essential summer reading list released by l'Association des Critiques et journalistes de Bande Dessinee. It's 20 books long, derived from 10-book lists submitted by individual members. That seems like a good idea to me, even though a broad list tends to have virtues and limitations like any other sized list, in this case probably tending to be generally conservative. I always thought an American equivalent to the ACBD would be fun and twice got to the point of writing by-laws and listing potential members. Both times right before making initial contact I remembered I hate everyone and wouldn't join such a group if asked, the kind of realizations that work against a community-building impulse. Anyway, I'd just list the books here, but then you'd have no reason
to follow the link.
