About book Gunnerkrigg Court, Vol. 1: Orientation (2007)

I just re-read this in order to refresh my memory since volume 4 just came out. I remember stumbling upon this volume first at the MoCCA festival and something about the art and the summary just intrigued me. And Renard as a stuffed toy?!? Brilliant! He is definitely one of the more interesting characters, who I'm sure will be more fleshed out later on (no pun intended). The mystery surrounding Annie (and her parents) and the school, reminds me of the Bone series. Plus the cast of character is so rich and different. I'm sure even as a novel I would have read this story, but reading it as a graphic novel is just so much more fulfilling. And how can you not want to see Renard start getting angry in his toy form? As a long time reader and fan of gunnerkrigg court, I believe that the story of these lovable characters are worth a read for the character growth, charming and witty dialogue and childlike silliness admist adult endeavours and the darker history of the court (later explored in the next volume[s] more so). Thought the art's anatomy & perspective is pretty bad at first, it improves so much as time goes by, and you feel the characters and story, just as the artist's hand, mature. Full of mythology told in a fun and heartfelt way, gunnerkrigg is well worth a read.
