SEAN: I admit it looks a bit too depressing for me, especially given when it takes place, but there’s no doubt that cocoon is the eye-catching prestige title of the week.
KATE: cocoon is 100% in my wheelhouse: Historical setting? Check! Graceful artwork? Check! Tragedy and heartbreak? Check and check! That said, I also want to make a plug for Dark Horse’s new coffee table book The Art of Star Wars: A New Hope–The Manga. If you haven’t read the original Star Wars manga, you should: it’s stylish, funny, and very much its own thing while still hewing closely to the film.
MICHELLE: It’s cocoon for me, as well!
ASH: I have already heard so many great things about cocoon that it’s absolutely my pick this week, too. That being said, I also expect it to be heart-wrenching, so suspect I will need to be in a very particular mood to read it.
ANNA: I agree that cocoon is absolutely the pick of the week, but I want to take some time to celebrate Mars being reprinted in such a deluxe edition too! It is nice that this shoujo classic is being re-released.
