5 nominations for the graphic novel ‘Gra-Grou’ from the 2018 Greek Comics Awards.

The Academy of the Greek Comics Awards has announced the nominations for this year’s awards, and Gra-Grou, the unique graphic novel by Tassos Zafeiradis, Yannis Palavos and Thanasis Petrou, with music by Michalis Siganidis, has secured five nominations: Best Comic, Best Script, Best Artwork, Best Cover and Best Art Direction! Gra-Grou unfolds an atmospheric story, where tradition intersects with the present and the realistic narrative is undermined by elements of the fantastical. Set against the backdrop of the eponymous restaurant, a landmark in Northern Greece for an entire era, the book crafts a charming gallery of characters just before each of them chooses the ‘big Yes or the big No’.The book is now in its second edition and continues to receive rave reviews from readers and critics alike.The award ceremony will take place on Friday 20 April at 9.00 pm in the Auditorium of the French Institute of Greece.
