review:
'The Chancellor and the Citadel' by Maria Capelle Frantz is a graphic novel that takes place in a mysterious citadel guarded by a mysterious Chancellor.

A hooded figure known as the Chancellor is tasked with protecting the people who live in a Citadel. The story takes place some time after the world has ended. The humans outside the city don't trust the Chancellor and see her as some kind of witch. There is something to be said about that, but Olive, a healer in the city sees otherwise.

I really loved this story for so many reasons. The first and foremost is the art which I adored. The second is the way gender stereotypes are reversed but not in a confrontational way. Women are in charge, and men are the ones that are sensitive and emotional in this world. The point is made gently, like the story. I can't wait to read more by this creator.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Iron Circus Comics in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
