review:
'The Jewish Brigade' with art and script by Morvano is a story that takes place in post-war Germany.
Ari and Leslie are two soldiers in a Jewish Brigade doing surveys of the German countryside. Along the way, they pick up a young girl names Safaya who has survived the war. They find a war criminal in hiding. They witness escaped Jewish prisoners being executed in the field. The Russian soldiers they meet are tolerant of them, barely, but let them go because they are British soldiers.
I was unfamiliar with this part of history, so I really enjoyed this graphic novel. The horror of post-war, the obviously bad feelings and the trauma of surviving are all here. The art is also really good.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
