Fascinating Folklore: A Compendium of Comics and Essays

by John Reppion Author and PJ Holden Illustrator

This unique collection blends folklore with stunning artwork, offering readers a fresh way to explore global myths and legends. Inspired by the #folklorethursday hashtag, the project began as a creative challenge between two friends, with one writing prompts based on folkloric themes and the other adapting them into single-panel comics. Over time, these prompts evolved into essays that provide in-depth exploration of the folklore behind each topic. The book covers a wide array of subjects, from well-known figures like Boudica to lesser-known legends such as the Wandjina spirits and the ghost Okiku, presenting folklore from across the world in an engaging and visually captivating format.
