I think the pacing is where the comicness shines. I love the cliffhanger episodiness aspect of this book. nice review – I do think that there is a very good use of “camera” pov in this that does put me in mind movies.

(don't tell me if you don't)(ok, fine, tell me, but don't tell anybody else!) -dave well the funny thing is that, you know, one of the main criticisms of both comics and road-trip stories is that they are overly-reliant on their episodic nature…so i thought, why not put ‘em together and double the fun?? maybe, if combined, they could be more than the sum of their parts…plus, i love drawing deserts and skinny people with baseball bats…and cars that look like weird animals.

More! MORE! I'm definitely gonna come back to this in a later post... Very glad to hear you say I "got" it -- for just a second there, while I was writing it all down, I thought "is it possible I've coloured this in with my own interests a little too much?" Because all the classic movie-style road trip bits are, you know, <i>right there</i>... And then I thought "no way!" Because if it were just a leftover screenplay, there really wouldn't be much in it to like, and I'd put it down. But it's nice to have confirmation from the artist! Man, I love comics. Well, #3 has just made me laugh, pretty hard…

More! MORE!
