Graphic Novel Summary: by Various Drawn & Quarterly Showcase Book Three presents three remarkable tales. Genevieve Elverum's 'We're Wolf' is composed of a trilogy of adult fables about happiness, sadness and companionship drawn in a graceful, languid style. Kramer's Ergot editor Sammy Harkham's 'Somersaulting,' a tale of two friends, chronicling the languid pace of summer as well as the gradual discovery of love and sex in the suburbs. After two such dreamy stories, Matt Broersma rounds out the book with the two-part 'The Mummy,' a charming and funny romp through a mythical mid-20th-century European locale, featuring tongue-in-cheek romance, intrigue and ghosts. Book Four features three North American cartoonists, Dan Zettwoch ('The Ghost of Dragon Canoe') of St. Louis, Gabrielle Bell (When I'm Old) of Brooklyn, and Martin Cendreda (Dang!) of Los Angeles. Zettwoch and Bell have both contributed to the award-winning anthology Kramer's Ergot. Cendreda is a frequent contributor to Giant Robot magazine.
