Devil’s Due explores the Armenian Genocide in Operation Nemesis

Human history has a lot of dark moments….the Armenian genocide is one of them, comicsbeat.com writes. It presents an interesting project by Devil’s Due called Operation Nemesis: A Story of Genocide & Revenge – a graphic novel honoring the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.

In 1915, Talaat Pasha, leader of the Turkish Ottomon Empire ordered the mass execution of every Armenian within his nation’s borders, resulting in the death of over 1,500,000 victims. Writer Josh Blaylocl and artist Hoyl Silva tell the story of Soghomon Tehlirian, an Armenian survivor who killed Pasha on the streets of Berlin and walked away from court a free man.

Besides Blaylock and Hoyt, Greg & Fake Studio provide the colors, and David Krikorian and Thomas Dardarian are listed as producer and co-producer respectively.  Pin-ups will be provided by Dan Panosian, Sedat Oezgen, and Harry Bogosian, son of monologist Eric Bogosian, and formerly a student of Paul Pope.

Bogosian Sr. has a prose book on the same topic coming out later.
