Originally published in French, continue with this second of three volumes of the Eisner Award-nominated adventure from critically acclaimed illustrator and animator Arthur de Pins. It’s crabs versus the world after all species evolve…except one: the square crab. It simply cannot change direction, condemned to walk in one straight line forever. But during one seemingly ordinary summer, three square crabs take matters into their own claws and rebel against the straight and narrow path they have been sentenced to, upending the entire ecosystem in the process.

Imprint: Archaia

Author: Arthur de Pins
Artists: Arthur de Pins

For centuries, the square crab has only been able to move side-to-side in one direction. But some brave crabs decide it’s time for revolution! A few of the brave crustaceans in an estuary on the French coastline decide it’s time to try and actually turn for once, but what does their evolution revolution mean for the human race?

Arthur de Pins’ art style is a slick, fun tribute to Art Deco, something rarely seen in comics. The story of a hapless species of crab is an endearing look at one of nature’s cruel jokes, but made light by a humorous presentation with likable characters, reminiscent of films like Ice Age and Finding Nemo.
