A Game of Cat and Maus Maus and Maus II are both very powerful and moving graphic novels. Both of which discuss one of the worst tragedies known to mankind.

However‚ Spielgelman’s use of animals to represent the different races helps the reader better understand the situation in a somewhat entertaining

Nature vs. Nurture by Art Spiegelman I enjoy the work of Art Spiegelman. Spiegelman uses the playful medium of comic books in order to communicate his thoughts and feeling on more serious topics.
