Au-dessus l'odyssée #[nn]

Published by Atrabile in 2022, this French-language volume from Jason pairs two quietly strange worlds on a single cover: a spacesuit-clad dog-headed figure stands alone on a vivid red alien mesa beneath a black sky dotted with twin yellow moons, while above — upside-down, dangling from a green ceiling fixture — another figure tumbles in blue jeans beside what appears to be a lava lamp. Jason's clean, deadpan linework makes the collision of the cosmic and the mundane feel perfectly matter-of-fact, which is precisely his gift. *Au-dessus l'odyssée* looks like exactly the kind of melancholy, wryly funny journey that rewards slow, careful reading.
