Oops. I hadn’t intended to take a week off from the site. But with all the overtime and the big holiday weekend, well, as I said, oops. Here’s are two new reviews and things should be back to "normal" now: Sleepwalker #1 by Molly Lawless and Spudd 64 #4 by Matt Kish and various others, which is also available in the online store.
Lawless, Molly – Sleepwalker #1
Sleepwalker #1 Now Available! $1
Warning to readers who hate baseball: one page of this comic deals with baseball at all, and that’s the hilarious story of the last game of the Washington Senator’s in 1971, something that I had somehow missed. So if you saw this somewhere and skipped out because you thought it would be a baseball comic, boy were you stupid. Most of the rest of the comic is the story of Jeff, a man who wormed his way into becoming the personal assistant to a wildly successful writer who does schlocky fantasy books. It’s a great story about a guy who finally gets to work for one of his idols and finds out that the reality of his hero isn’t quite as wonderful as he’d imagined. He also deals briefly with his hilariously stereotypical friends, a liberal blogger, underground comix artist and a screenwriter. Intriguing stuff, continued in the next issue, and it even leaves on a bit of a cliffhanger. She ends the issue with a short story about a robbery she’d witnessed, without doing much of anything about it. Great first issue (although she’s done more comics if you’re curious and would like to e-mail her), well worth a look.
