The legal battle is done, but the fighting has just begun! Syd looks to the future as Miles runs from his past! Can he find happiness? Can any of us? Honestly, I'm not sure. I think the most we can ever hope for is to feel content. But what do I know? I'm killing myself writing and drawing comics.
The "hit" series from CHIP ZDARSKY continues.
Public Domain only seems to get more relevant with each issue, inadvertently linking to real-world events that would make many call Zdarsky a psychic. In reality, its observing and drawing on patterns in an industry built on the unfair treatment and labor of creativity that Zdarsky is channeling. With this issue, Zdarsky gets to expand into some more action for a strong sequence that balances with absurd comedy before switching gears to a brutal and honest expression of an artist's hope for a legacy, and what it means to him and his family. Zdarskys range in this title is awe-inspiring and continues to remind readers about what goes on behind the scenes of their favorite works of art. Read Full Review
There's a great deal of novelistic narrative being carried in these pages and it's well served by Zdarsky's character's clear expressions and posture that informs them every bit as much as their words, even if it's typically set against drab backgrounds in this setting. Read Full Review
This is one hell of a homage to Kirby and one of the best comics of the year.
I will say the main character is not very likeable. I get he wants his Dad to get the best, but he comes across as an unsympathetic loser. Other than that the story, is pretty decent. I still think it's a great read, I just wish the main guy was someone I could root for a little more.
