At The Comixverse, Zedric Dimalanta calls the Sergio Toppi’s work “absolutely astounding” in Sharaz-De: Tales from the Arabian Nights, published in 2012 by Archaia:
A rare English translation of a seminal work by one of Europe’s most influential artists.
Features absolutely gorgeous line art and radical storytelling techniques that any serious student of comics and sequential art with the means should view and study.
Classic tales are allowed to retain their simple charm.
Informative, entertaining foreword by Walt Simonson is almost a brief art lesson on its own.
