This image hit me fairly early-on as I was reading what I would later realise was a super-wonderful BD. But why this particular pic? Welp, because I absolutely LOVE it when comics artists find ways to reduce image detail in order to convey a clear message.

And meanwhile, as the reader, there's really nothing to complain about! Everything makes sense, and there's really no particularly good reason to add extra detail, at least as I see it.

Eh, here's the full page, anyway, in which both the author and subject Alix Garin are livin' it up in a Berlin nightclub:

Anyway, BDT has this to say about the album: (with a little translation help from some idiot)

]> In a deeply intimate and moving narrative, Alix Garin tells us about her liberating journey through the meandering, baffling nature of sexual disorders. About the struggle to regain possession of one's body and sexual desire. It is in fact a highly-moving quest for healing, emancipation and love.
]> ]> Through ups and downs, failures and victories, Alix explores the depths of her own psyche, the links between the physical and the mind, and the complexity of sexuality.

Anyway, more later on this magnificent, significant work, but here's a few more 'nightlife Berlin-style' pages I thought you might like. I know I did: :D
