Welcome to Litsy!

Undeniably great artwork from Darwyn Cooke.

From there, ???

I‘ve not read much by Gilbert Hernàndez, sacrilege, I know. I have read that this work focuses on trash female characters that have a lot of sexual partners & hyper-macho male protagonists.

So, not really written for me. This entire storyline lacks sense & you will not find any character either relatable or likable.

My verdict: Meh. ??‍♂️??

Last minute meeting reading goal, aka comic book time ❤️

This was pretty cool! I really liked the art!

I'm confused. I don't really understand what happened or why it happened. I don't care much for any of the characters. This just left me shrugging my shoulders and scratching my head in bewilderment. May you have better luck with this.

I'm feeling a bit under the weather, so short reads are most appealing right now 🤓

Interesting idea (orbs from the sky, inexplicable blindness, possible alien encounters), uneven execution (choppy dialogue and very little character development). I'm not sure if there is more to this series, but I'd be willing to continue.

I loved the artwork and pithy characters, but the story is a bit slow. Still a good quick read. White orbs start showing up in a beachside village. A scientist, town floozy, her mysterious husband and sleazy boyfriend, the sheriff, 3 blind kids and a beautiful mute woman work to solve the mystery.

A big, weird, beautiful mess. Cooke's work is gorgeous as always, but the opaque magical realism of the narrative always kept me at arms length. Flawed but fascinating.

Breakfast & comics ❤️
