A Sort of Homecoming #2
In case anybody read the first issue of this series and had any doubts about it, this should put them all to rest. This issue is basically a collection of flashbacks to earlier times with David and Owen. It starts to show why they lost touch in the first place (although it leaves the future, potentially explosive confrontations for the next issue) and some of the great times they had when they were younger. I don’t think Owen actually talks to a single living human being in this issue. Look, the reason this book, and everything I’ve seen by these two, is so great is that everybody can relate to what they’re trying to say. Who out there doesn’t have a friend (or two, or ten) that they always thought they were going to hang out with but here they are, years later, and they haven’t seen that person in years? Still, at the back of your mind, there’s usually some piece of that friendship sitting there, coming back to the front of your brain when you see a reminder of times that you once had. It’s a great, true series so far and I can’t wait to see how it ends. $3.50, contact info is up there.
