8 Comics to Read This Pride Month
Hey, Mary!
A teenage boy, Mark Dudyk, is struggling to reconcile his sexual identity with his Christianity. The story is thoughtful and also takes provocative leaps: Mark envisions conversations with saints whose sexuality was erased in interpretations of the Bible. The soldiers and martyrs Sergius and Bacchus, who are drawn here with the chiseled good looks of runway models, present a simple truth: 'There have always been queer people, since before we had the language for it.' Written by Andrew Wheeler and drawn by Rye Hickman. (Oni Press. Available now.)
Love Languages
Sarah Huxley and Ping Loh have their meet-cute moment in Paris when Sarah, trying to avoid two aggressive mimes, stumbles on a street and Ping comes to her aid. An unlikely relationship begins — one that has to surmount a language barrier: The women communicate haltingly in English, French and Cantonese. (The word balloons include English translations of what is being spoken.) There is a joyous moment for the women when Sarah finally gets the hang of Cantonese. By James Albon. (Top Shelf. Available Now.)

‘The Adventures of Antoine Doinel': François Truffaut's Alter-Ego Grows Up
Those unfamiliar with the nuances of France's New Wave may not realize its movies aren't all inscrutable. For every Jacques Rivette, there was an Eric Rohmer; for every Jean-Luc Godard, a François Truffaut. Indeed, Truffaut, who died in 1984 at age 52, may well be the Nouvelle Vague's most accessible director. His breakthrough picture, 'The 400 Blows' (1959)—essential viewing—remains universally adored, and for good reason: It charts the tribulations of young adolescence as no film did before and few, if any, have managed since. So it's no wonder that though Truffaut didn't originally intend for Antoine Doinel, the movie's broodingly sympathetic central character and his acknowledged alter-ego, to reappear, he couldn't resist revisiting the rapscallion from time to time. Thus, beyond 'Blows,' we have three features and a short in which Antoine is the protagonist—always played by the same actor who first portrayed him, the winsome Jean-Pierre Léaud, though the parallels between Antoine and Truffaut diminish as the series progresses.
