Fikir çok güzel, çizimler şahane ama öykü anlatımı zayıf. Yani aslında tipik bir Fransız çizgi romanı.

kısa bir çizgi roman ama konuya giriş 30. sayfada başlıyor. 2,5 yıldız.
I read this book after Marc-Antoine Mathieu's Museum Vaults: Excerpts from the Journal of an Expert, which is out of order, given that De Crecy's Glacial Period is the first volume in this series co-published by the Musee du Louvre. [return][return]In the end, that mis-sequence turned out to be a good thing, since De Crecy's is the better tale, and sets the stage for these graphic novel explorations of the great art museum so well. This is a sort of post-apocalyptic tale, set in future days after global warming has wreaked havoc on our planet, and the Louvre is long buried and forgotten. A group of explorers come upon the remains, and De Crecy then proceeds to take the reader through a simultaneous exploration of selected artworks from the Louvre, as well as some of the history behind the great institution. While the explorers spout spurious theories to explain what they have found, one of their genetically enhanced dogs communicates with the artworks themselves, and ultimately saves them from further neglect by convincing them to abandon their rigid forms and (literally) run away free from the shell of the museum buildings. [return][return]Overall, Glacial Period is a quick and interesting read that mashes up science fiction, art, and the philosophy of art into a unique stew with a full and hearty flavor - well worth a taste!

The story was iffy, but the art was fabulous. I somehow doubt the contents of the Louvre would be so well preserved after 2000 years, even if frozen under a glacier... Great pigdogs.
