Fascinating Folklore: A Compendium Of Comics And Essays Av John Reppion

The creative seed for Fascinating Folklore: A Compendium of Comics and Essays began under the popular hashtag #folklorethursday. Each week Reppion tweeted a different writing prompt on a folkloric theme that PJ would swiftly adapt into a stunning single-panel comic. What began as a creative challenge between two friends rapidly developed; Reppion expanded each of his original prompts into a rich essay corresponding to each of PJ''s stunning comics. With their combined talents, Reppion and PJ have created an astounding compendium and a unique way to learn about everything folklore! The range of folkloric topics is genuinely expansive, from Hawthorne, Blackberries and the Willow tree to the legend of Boudica, the Wandjing spirits of Western Australia and the Japanese ghost, Okiku!
