With “Mezkal”, Jef and Kevan Stevens take readers on a hallucinatory road trip between Mexican cartels, shamanism and desert dust. A cocktail that deposits!
Do you know Mezcal? It is an agave-based brandy, which comes straight from Mexico. A fermented drink with powerful and complex aromas, an ancestral treasure with a sulphurous reputation, some say that Mezcal drives you crazy.
“Mezkal” is the title that Jef and Kevan Stevens chose to give to their comic book album. A funny over-vitamin cocktail, colored with violence and sex. A crazy road movie, stuffed with disturbing faces of bikers, dealers and gang leaders. A quest for oneself and its origins between dream and nightmare, morning of shamanism, which plunges us into the hell of the Mexican cartels and the sandy dust of the desert.
The comic strip “Mezkal”, by Kevan stevens and I f is published by Éditions Soleil.
Reporting : While Tunisia is going through an extremely tense social, political and economic period, some are banking on knowledge and culture in these difficult times. This is particularly the case of a cultural center which has chosen to settle in one of the poorest districts of Tunis. It aims precisely to bring art where it is not expected.
