(Emanata, Christopher Twin - image credit)An Edmonton-based comic creator has made the shortlist for the best Canadian comics of 2023 by CBC Books. Twin told CBC's Edmonton AM, one character in the book tells a story about little people who live near the river and play tricks on people passing by. "Another kid tells a story about a girl that gets abducted and [has to] fight for yourself," Twin said. Twin said he wanted to convey the Indigenous communities' tradition of oral storytelling that always ends in a lesson. He said his next book, which falls in the sci-fi genre, will also pull on his Indigenous roots.
