Anyway, I think this is one of those cases where you can judge a book by  its cover. The story has &#8220;goth&#8221; written all over it, which can be a  good thing or a bad thing in my experience. The art here was incredible.  I really liked how everything was full. Busy panels all over the place  are NEVER a bad thing in my mind. The problem was that there were three  stories in here, all of which were pretty melodramatic and silly. It  reads just like a first attempt at a comic, but luckily it was done so  long ago that it probably is a first attempt at a comic and I&#8217;m sure his  stuff has gotten better since then. For $2.50 there&#8217;s really not much  here, unless you just want to look at the pictures. Still, he could have  some serious talent, so write to him to see what else he&#8217;s been up to:  P.O.
