  "textContent": "This is a belated review of the last two official volumes of Blacksad, the French hardcover comic series about a cat detective written by Spanish author Juan Díaz Canales, with _gorgeous_ anthropomorphic art by Juanjo Guarnido. Credit to StratoKasta who beat me to it back in 2024! So why am I getting around to this now? Because I want to read something new that's Blacksad-adjacent, and didn't want to do that without reviewing these first.\n\nI'd last read _Blacksad_ volume 5 (_Amarillo_) ages ago, and had largely forgotten it. So diving back into the series felt like riding a bicycle after a long absence - a bit wobbly at first, then getting back into the groove. The last two volumes are a two-parter called **They All Fall Down** (French: _Alors, tout tombe_).\n\n\nread more",
