Your 2011 Grand Prix de la Critique Winner From The ACBD: Astérios Polyp



Selected every year by the Association des Critiques et des journalistes de Bande Dessinée, the Grand Prix de la Critique may be the biggest award in the yearly ramp-up to January's Festival International de la Bande Dessinée d'Angoulëme. This year's goes to Astérios Polyp. I can't imagine a similar North American award playing the same role -- well, I can't imagine the result without shrieking. David Mazzucchelli's well-regarded return to comics is published in French by Casterman. It was released over there in June of this year.
