Graham, Brandon – Escalator

Website

Escalator

Plenty of comics are completely random these days, so that seems like an unremarkable thing to start a review off with. Still, this book is completely random. Sumo wrestlers setting off by the hundreds looking for adventure, a young man fleeing his apartment after accidentally selling his soul, sneaking into a train yard to make some art, alien porn, trying to escape from murderous school girls, and a few other things that make even less sense than that. This is a feast for the eyes, with most of the panels in here having obviously been the result of some serious hours of work. Little background things, big, complex foreground things, the man likes a busy panel and there’s not a thing wrong with that. If you like your stories short and random but also like some bang for your buck, look no further, as they say. This is $12.95, available through Alternative Comics, or go to Brandon’s website, if this review didn’t make much sense to you and you’d like to see what the hell I’m talking about for yourself…
