Description

With only a few years of making comics Juliette Collet has managed to make some of the most beautiful, inventive and personal comics of recent memory. A lot of her stories feature her as a character but she is smart enough to steer clear of a lot of trappings of typical autobio comics. Part of why I like Collet is that she seems to want to express emotional honesty more than just show emotional situations, which is what I see in a lot of other comics. A voice still growing and expanding and all of it is just extremely exciting.

Very personal page from the story “Perdre la tête” (Lose one's head). Who among us hasn’t followed their heart instead of their head? Collet starts off with a first panel depicting herself as naked without her head which is a hell of a way to start a personal story, which is then heightened by having turning heads frame the page, seeing the face, showing all sides of oneself.

This page was originally featured in Quelqu’un a large format 40-page screen printed book, that was an edition of 36, Collet’s then ongoing series Blah Blah Blah which was on many year-end lists for 2022 and 2023 including The Comics Journal Yearbook: Best of 2022’s top ten comics, and finally was in the lead-off story of Clamp 5.

Ink on bristol board.

Circling, you're circling, you're circling Collet
Contemplating everything with Juliette
Now I see the truth, I got a doubt
A different motive in your lines and dots are out
See you later

I see your fantasy
You wanna make it a sexually rave as told
See inside, inside of our heads, yeah
Well, now dot's over

I see your motives ink lines
Decisions to hide

Clothes off, I'll take you on
Headstrong a page for anyone
Blah Blah Blah you are wrong
Headstrong, we're Headstrong
Sex on, I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know Clamp you are wrong
And this has dots where you belong

Finally one of the pieces from my collection gets a Marcus song parody.

Was not prepared for a Trapt song.
