Wish You Were Here No. 1: The Innocents (Ignatz Series)

By Gipi

A decade after his days as a roaming punk, Giuliano takes his nephew Andrea down to the seaside, his old stomping grounds, to visit with one of his old friends: Valerio, who has just finished serving a long prison sentence after having been framed, tortured and imprisoned by two rogue members of an anti-terrorist squad. "The Innocents," which includes two narrative tracks in different drawing styles, is a contemplative, beautifully drawn graphic novelette about these three characters' meeting. Future issues will focus on other members of this group of friends, a bit like Jaime Hernandez's "Locas" stories, with supporting characters stepping into the spotlight as former "lead" characters become part of the background...
