Comics on Fire #1
Three cheers for short, funny comics! Well, mostly funny anyway. This is Paul’s first comic and it’s a series of unconnected strips and gags that end up being a pretty funny comic. Stories in here involve a sentient robot searching for alien life, a goldfish searching for food in the vastness of his bowl, a head on a skateboard, a yeti (?), cat adventures (with comically cute eyeballs), watch-face funnies (it’s just what it sounds like), the utter confusion of a robot zombie, and various gag strips. He also has a few bigger pieces (OK, more panels) on understanding body language, a listing of his physical ailments, and actual responses to the question “What’s your greatest fear?”. Sure, a couple of the gags fall flat, but this is a damned funny book, even funnier when you remember that this is Paul’s first comic. Worth a look, and this man may have some serious funny in him in the future. $3
