Bayou: The First Zuda TPB Available For Pre-Order
The first Zuda.com trade paperback collection is now available for pre-order. Jeremy Love’s acclaimed Bayou, which recently swept the Glyph Awards nominations, is the first Zuda webcomic to get the “hard copy” treatment, being collected in a 160 page softcover. It’s slated for an early June release.
Lee Wagstaff is the daughter of a black sharecropper in the depression-era town of Charon, Mississippi. When Lily Westmoreland, her white playmate, is snatched by agents of an evil creature known as Bog, Lee’s father is accused of kidnapping. Lee’s only hope is to follow Lily’s trail into this fantastic and frightening alternate world. Along the way she enlists the help of a benevolent, blues singing, swamp monster called Bayou. Together, Lee and Bayou trek across a hauntingly familiar Southern Neverland, confronting creatures both benign and malevolent, in an effort to rescue Lily and save Lee’s father from being lynched.
BAYOU VOL. 1 collects the first four chapters of the critically acclaimed webcomic series by Glyph Award nominee Jeremy Love.
You know, the concept art was better than the actual cover art.
