Many Reviews at Kitty Sneezes

Jan 26, 2009 15:41

Sorry for the Spartan look lately! I'm behind on posting these reviews, so I have been skipping putting up cover images and such. Now I'm consolidating several reviews into one post. Yes, we're budgeting time to budget money! Such are the times.

Kitty Sneezes has a lot of new reviews of SLG books (some of these were linked to from our Twitter feed already, I know):

Tales to Suffice #1 by Kenny Keil gets compliments for its "colorful, cartoony art and a generous helping of dry and situational humor."

Of Punk Rock and Trailer Parks by Derf, reviewer Rev. Syung Myung Me writes, "Derf's artwork is intriguing; there's an ugliness to it, but it's intentional; he has a clear command of good principles which drives the book forward, and in the caricatures of famous folks accurately captures not only their likeness but the spirit."

Of Space Raoul by Jamie Smart he writes, "There's definintely a British sensibility to the strips, and given the original venues, the work is all-ages -- which might not necessarily be expected from SLG, the home of comics like Johnny The Homicidal Maniac
-- however it's a very smart comic, which SHOULD be expected from SLG." Aww, that's nice, hunh?

And, finally, is a review of Ursa Minors by Neil Kleid, Paul Cote and Fernando Pinto: "Feel free to laugh, because that's the whole point. This isn't a serious work at all. What's amazing is, the comic manages to so perfectly emulate what it is satirizing that it rises above other superhero comedies into something altogether more remarkable. The art is cartoony enough, but with the sort of edge you'd expect to find in black and white comics of this sort, and when we're not treated to hilarious physical humor involving computer monitor abuse or scathing remarks from lovely young ladies, we witness Jetpack Ninjas in all their glory."
