When is it too expensive for too few pages? I don’t think there’s an answer to that, but I will admit to almost putting this back on the shelf. I had about $30 to spare until payday and more bills to shake a stick at, and this is $3 for 9 pages of actual comic. Granted, it’s in color and it looks incredible, but it’s still serious money when everything else is a buck or two. I guess that means it’s lucky for Jay that I really liked this tiny book, huh? Well, for one thing, he’s a 15 year professional. I guess he stopped for a while in there, but he apparently did some Grendel stories years ago, and man can he draw. He takes what could be a silly, generic character and makes it real. The story so far (as far as I can tell) is that Bob (whatever he is) is flying around when he hits a rock, crashes, and loses his head. I’d tell you more, but it’s not a big book and it’s best to keep as many surprises as possible. If my opinion is enough to convince you of buying something, well, I thoroughly enjoyed this. Go to the website for info about a few different comics people, and if you like the look of the sample here, well, you decide what to do…
