Urban Hipster #2<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

If you think that the last thing the comics world needs is another comic about people in their 20’s complaining about things and socializing, no matter how good the comic actually is, then you’re going to want to avoid this. If you like your comics insightful, beautiful and entertaining, then you’re probably going to want to pick this up. Garfunk, the hip cat, was kind of stupid to me for one strip and then kind of funny for the strip that I sampled. Other than that there were a few short strips, then one about pinball. Here’s where I really related, as I went through my own pinball addiction a few years ago and he nailed a whole bunch of emotions from that admittedly silly addiction. Not sure how the rest of the world will react to it but I got what he was going for, or at least I got something out of it. The bulk of the comic is the interaction between Natasha and Chloe, and if you’re thinking “Ghost World” all over again just because it has two female leads, you’re way off. Chloe is quiet and introspective, Natasha uses any ammunition that she might have to get what she wants, even when that information isn’t really hers to give. A great comic, something that everybody should check out. And it looks like Dave is unemployed, so maybe we won’t have to wait five years for another issue…<\/p>\n
