Book Description

January 14, 2002
Josue Menjivar, the creator of the comic book series Broken Fender, is back with a moving and emotional graphic novel entitled, "Cicada." Examining the emotional scars that infidelity can produce, this graphic novel intelligently relates the guilt that one man carries to the hibernation cycle of the cicada. Fans of Broken Fender know how Josue is a master of combining streetwise urgency with a real sense of heart, and "Cicada" is the first showcase of this extraordinary ability in a full-length story.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sad and thought-provoking, June 23, 2007
This review is from: Cicada (Paperback)
This short graphic novel tells the story of a man whose childlike, pathetic desire to be liked leads him into numerous extramarital affairs, and eventually to lonliness and isolation.

Menjivar captures very subtle emotions in his art. The story isn't too deep, but worth a look, especially if you're a fan of alternative or "underground" comics.
