Overview
An experimental and disruptive graphic novel about a millennial slacker for whom a daily anecdote becomes an obsession that is the engine of the story. One of the kinds that will kidnap you, and you just have to turn the pages wanting to know what else will happen. Eye-catching, with flat colours and the recognizable playful style of one of the most emerging Spanish illustrators.

Reviews
'Stranger Blood describes the existential boredom of a whole generation, with a narrative form that is fantastic, sparkling and genuine.' -- Ana Galvan, illustrator and comics author 'Sergi Puyol has put all his visual skills into a story that is both gripping and disturbing, in which we can never be sure of what is true and what is false. Only one thing appears to be true beyond the shadow of doubt: obsession can drag us into insanity.' --Gerardo Vilches, comics critic and curator ' Puyol has joyfully given himself to the narrative pleasures of great literature with the tools of a contemporary master, but to fully enjoy his best work so far I recommend reading his gray words with a low and anemic voice, in order to dispel the secret truth that all blood is stranger. And ours, more than any.'- Santiago Garcia, author of Las Meninas. National Comic Award, 2015
