Just to make this perfectly clear, this is half of a split book with Nick Abadzis.\u00a0 Both halves had three stories, which is different for a flip book.\u00a0 Most of them just have one story from each of the creators.\u00a0 A minor touch, but I liked it.\u00a0 Like I said, there were three stories in here.\u00a0 The first one is about a baby bird being born and being constantly in danger no matter which way it turns.\u00a0 The second is the story about a man living with an angry voice in his head… OK, fine, you caught me.\u00a0 I’m not entirely sure what it was about.\u00a0 It looked great, smudgy and atmospheric.\u00a0 The third story was about an old man who’s laid up in a nursing home, thinking about his life and what led him to this point.\u00a0 The first two stories are wordless, by the way, the third one is not.\u00a0 He manages to keep up an almost palpable sense of danger and impending mortality throughout all three stories.\u00a0 This is an impressive comic all around, well worth getting for both halves of the flip, which isn’t always true.\u00a0 Here’s his e-mail address: pablok222@hotmail.com<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0 Send him an e-mail (it’s $5), or get ahold of Nick Abadzis instead.<\/p>\n
