Epic Tales of the Mundane #5

Brad’s taking a break from telling epic tales of his life and uses this issue to tell the tale of Brandon Huigens.  Or, more accurately, Brandon uses this issue to tell that tale, as he is the listed writer.  Brandon tells his story from a small child through getting constantly harassed at school to joining the military to get away from everything (and from how he describes it, joining the military wasn’t a bad idea) to quitting the military and ending up back home.  Not much in the way or happy endings or life lessons here, which is fine with me, as I hate those damned things.  Brandon also uses the extra space to get into a bit of his history with his grandparents, veering almost into adorable territory for a minute, but hey, it’s a true story.  Good stuff all around, as it’s an interesting story and Brad does a great job with the art.  You can tell Brandon has a lot to learn about this mini comics business though, as the pros can whine about their unhappy childhood for issues and issues before running out of material and Brandon took care of the whole thing in a single issue.  Still only $1, still worth checking out.
