Multo is a collection of autobiographical comics by Andrew Lorenzi. The stories explore: memory, identity, folklore & faith, sleep paralysis, and the daily rhythms of life. Told through drawings, paintings, and embroidery, Multo is a comic book meditation on the cycles which shape our lives. Printed in an oversized format to showcase the stunning art.
This 9" x 12" is a bunch of shorts that reads extremely quickly. Think of the amount of time it takes to read a comic issue. Other than giving off a warm&fuzziness, I was not impressed. It's more of a "Lorenzi Sampler", which demonstrates his diversity of art utensils, than a book.
This graphic novel is beautiful both in its art and in the stories it tells. Multo's stories aren't particularly plot heavy but they do manage to perfectly capture emotions in a truly stunning way. It is impossible to do Multo justice with words alone so I would highly recommend anyone and everyone to pick it up and experience it for yourself.
