latest graphic novels read:
"Dumped" by andi watson (Oni Press)
"Paul has a summer job" by paul rabagilati (Drawn & Quarterly)
illlustrated stories of common people, memories, real life relationships both bitter and sweet. nothing larger than life, just the same size, same dilemmas, same fears, same tears. and why would i read funnies that remind me of how painful life it? not that these books are not super hilarious, but the artists made life bearable again. we are here watching our lives dramatized within the square frames and smiling. humanity seems even sweet though it still sucks.
