The Official Selections 2017 for the FauvesOfficial Selections 2017 for the Fauves, the comics awards presented every year at the Angoulême comics festival, have been announced, with a generous helping of US comics, including Daniel Clowes’ Patience, Saga, Bitch Planet and Richard Thompson’s Cul-de-Sac, Jupiter’s Legacy by MIllar and Quitely, FAmily Fun by Benjamin Frisch and…well all sorts of things really like Alison Nechdel and Michael DeForge, as well as Riad Sattouf and Tardi.
And in the youth division, Hagar the Horrible.
It’s quite an eclectic list, if not as diverse as you’d like to see, but Angoulême’s move to a more modern and global outlook continues to advance. The jury this year was significantly broadened after the intense scandals of last year, with more women and booksellers.
The official site doesn’t list the winners in a copyable way, and the official press section of the site still lists the 2016 nominees, so this is the best we can do for now – however if you click through images you can see preview pages of ALL the selections.
