Generation born in the Eighties... Generation of almost thirty-year-olds, big kids, almost fathers, almost adults, precarious, permanent, and bored, with a question mark instead of a future and ellipses instead of the present...

Zerocalcare, a Roman artist produced by Makkox, talks about us. After some collaborations with newspapers and magazines, he creates this "The Armadillo Prophecy," a collection of strips that collectively tell a sad yet at the same time hilarious story... So engrossing that I read it on a train journey of less than an hour... It had been a long time since I read comics, but after discovering him online (here and here) I rediscovered the pleasure.

Recommended for those like me who were born in those years, you will surely find yourself in these stories that evoke a thousand memories.
