Hey look, a giant issue!\u00c2\u00a0 Well, technically Tyler said that his computer was on the fritz and he usually shrinks everything down to “normal” mini comic size.\u00c2\u00a0 As long as there’s a good story in here the size isn’t that big of a deal, and there is a good story in here.\u00c2\u00a0 Also quite possibly the most straightforward thing I’ve seen from Tyler, at least if you strip away all the imaginative visuals.\u00c2\u00a0 This is the story of a two friends: a young boy and girl.\u00c2\u00a0 The boy has the latest dream from a hot celebrity, as the thing to do for the youngsters is to get dreams from famous people and experience them for themselves.\u00c2\u00a0 Some people think this is too personal, and others are disappointed when it turns out that their favorite stars have been using chemical enhancers to improve their dreams, but for these two kids it’s all about the quality of the dreams.\u00c2\u00a0 While talking about the new dream they realize that the dreamer has killed himself and this is the last new dream they’ll ever see from the guy, and everybody knows that the first time you experience a dream is the best.\u00c2\u00a0 The dream itself was a haunting and creepy thing, as the viewer was essentially sharing the experience with the original dreamer, who in this case was dead.\u00c2\u00a0 I’m on the verge of describing the whole comic again, so I’ll just say that I loved the little touches here (like the newsflash that the newly dead entertainer was 7 years old and how the last dream wasn’t as lucid as usual) and how Tyler can tell an almost mundane personal story when everything involved is so visually fantastic.\u00c2\u00a0 Check it out already, this series is starting to pile up and they’re all quality comics so far.\u00c2\u00a0 Well, I haven’t seen #1 yet, but #2-4 are certainly worth getting.\u00c2\u00a0 No price again, let’s go with $3 just because.<\/p>\n
