Why am I mentioning all this?\u00c2\u00a0 Oatmeal is, as far as I can tell, not available anywhere.\u00c2\u00a0 I&#8217;m pretty sure I got this at SPACE last year (2008), so it&#8217;s still possible to find, and I&#8217;m breaking with tradition here because this is worth seeking out.\u00c2\u00a0 OK, maybe it&#8217;s not if you don&#8217;t like clever, sprawling outer space adventures with a varied and ridiculous cast of characters, so if that&#8217;s not you there&#8217;s plenty of other things on this site to keep you entertained.\u00c2\u00a0 The level of detail in the art here is tremendous, as there&#8217;s no wasted space at all.\u00c2\u00a0 Lars uses every bit of the panels, even if it&#8217;s just to show various debris scattered on the ground.\u00c2\u00a0 Kids today, take note: if you&#8217;re going for sprawling and\/or epic, attention to detail like that is key.\u00c2\u00a0 I should mention that this came out in 1996, maybe they just did things differently way back then.\u00c2\u00a0 How about the story?\u00c2\u00a0 Two young women set out (in space) to visit their aunt.\u00c2\u00a0 There&#8217;s a crash, some space sirens, a brief time stranded on a planet, a strange genius with a clumsy assistant, and sorry but there&#8217;s just no way a capsule review is going to do this thing justice.\u00c2\u00a0 Like I said, there&#8217;s no easy way to get this that I could find online.\u00c2\u00a0 This is here more as a public service announcement, that if you do see this lying around somewhere then yes, it is worth picking up.<\/p>\n<p>UPDATE: Mark Innes contacted me and provided me a link to his publishing house, which puts out this and all sorts of other comics, which you should maybe think about buying.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/oatmeal22.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3854\" title=\"oatmeal22\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/oatmeal22.jpg\" alt=\"oatmeal22\" width=\"545\" height=\"759\" srcset=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/oatmeal22.jpg 545w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/oatmeal22-215x300.jpg 215w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 545px) 100vw, 545px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website where you can buy this comic Website for Henrik Website for Lars Daily comics for Henrik Oatmeal II There&#8217;s a very simple rule I try to follow with this website: if I&#8217;m going to talk about something, there should be a simple way for anybody reading this to get that comic.\u00c2\u00a0 A website is [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[3916,3917,1916],"class_list":["post-3852","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-reviews","tag-henrik-rehr","tag-lars-horneman","tag-oatmeal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3852","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3852"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3852\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16539,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3852\/revisions\/16539"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3852"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3852"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3852"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
