In Gipi’s post-apocalyptic drama Land of the Sons, there’s a moment when a father laments whether he should reveal to his sons that dogs were once prized friends of humans to be cherished and not competitors for resources that you killed for food. The fear is that to reveal such a truth is to acknowledge a form of empathy that creates weakness in a world where survival at all costs has become crucial. Gipi has created Gli innocenti (The Innocents) for the Ignatz Series and in this work earned him an Eisner Award nomination and a Max Moritz Prize.
