Just to make this perfectly clear, this is half of a split book with Nick Abadzis. Both halves had three stories, which is different for a flip book. Most of them just have one story from each of the creators. A minor touch, but I liked it. Like I said, there were three stories in here. The first one is about a baby bird being born and being constantly in danger no matter which way it turns. The second is the story about a man living with an angry voice in his head… OK, fine, you caught me. I’m not entirely sure what it was about. It looked great, smudgy and atmospheric. The third story was about an old man who’s laid up in a nursing home, thinking about his life and what led him to this point. The first two stories are wordless, by the way, the third one is not. He manages to keep up an almost palpable sense of danger and impending mortality throughout all three stories. This is an impressive comic all around, well worth getting for both halves of the flip, which isn’t always true. Here’s his e-mail address. Send him an e-mail (it’s $5), or get ahold of Nick Abadzis instead.
