WHY WE LOVE IT: At Archaia, we love bringing great comics from all over the
world to English-speaking audiences, stories they would never get to see
otherwise (see The Killer, Okko, Toppi's The Collector, and others). When
we read French title March of the Crabs by animator Arthur De Pins, we knew
right away we had to add it to our list! WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: Arthur De
Pins' art style is a slick, fun tribute to Art Deco, something rarely seen
in comics. The story of a hapless species of crab is an endearing look at one of
nature's cruel jokes, but made light by a humorous presentation with
likable characters, reminiscent of films like Ice Age and Finding Nemo. WHAT
IT'S ALL ABOUT: For centuries, the square crab has only been able to move
side-to-side in one direction. But some brave crabs decide it's time for
revolution! A few of the brave crustaceans in an estuary on the French coastline
decide it's time to try and actually turn for once, but what does their
evolution revolution mean for the human race?
Crabs versus The World.
