Sure, the first one I read was good, but what about other work? Was the early stuff as good? How about later issues, did he\/she keep it up? I&#8217;m happy to say that this issue was much better than #4, and I liked that one just fine. There are a few shorter pieces in this, but the bulk of it is the story of a boy as he grows up in a town where he&#8217;s told to stay away from the &#8220;bad people&#8221;, but by the time he&#8217;s in high school there are bad people everywhere. I don&#8217;t want to ruin it for anybody who hasn&#8217;t read it, but the scene with the 13 year old boy came as a complete surprise to me, even with the hints thrown in with the fingernails. That&#8217;s a sentence that makes no sense to the people who haven&#8217;t already read this, which is fine because you should read it. I still don&#8217;t know about his earlier issues and, after his introduction about how much he&#8217;s changed and how that&#8217;s reflected in the comic, I&#8217;m not sure that I want to. Some of the dialogue is a bit stilted here and there. That&#8217;s about as much of a complaint as I can muster. It&#8217;s $3, contact info is above, check it out! Oh yeah, and I liked the smaller stories too&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/apollo52.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"378\" height=\"589\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Apollo Astro #5 I love getting that second issue from a creator that I liked the first time around.
