Toxic Comix #5

Christ, that’s one big comic, huh? Well, we learn what happened with Amy and why she’s the way that she is. We also learn that Barry likes using song lyrics a little too much for my taste, whatever that means to the rest of the world. It’s not a bad issue at all. I think that the art’s getting better all the time (although there’s still work to be done, little things like portraying a man, apparently eating, in a restaurant and boobs), same for the writing. On as aesthetic level I really don’t like the lettering; it’s way too squiggly. Still, if it’s that or perhaps illegible handwriting, I’ll take the squiggles. This one’s short and the only thing I have any real problem with is the song lyrics, which I can’t imagine would really bug anybody else. Other than that, I’m curious to see where he’s going next. This one is $1.50, contact info is up there…
