It&#8217;s not like it&#8217;s a secret or anything, Pat mentions the fact right there on the cover. Generally speaking sketchbooks don&#8217;t do much for me one way or the other, and they&#8217;re damn near impossible to review, what with not having a real story and all. This is a collection of, oddly enough, broads and monsters, with the occasional broad\/monster hybrid mixed in. Most of the sketches are fully formed images with a few naked women thrown in, and it&#8217;s not like you weren&#8217;t wondering about that, you pervert you. There is one story in here, Pat&#8217;s version of the Bloody Mary myth that adolescent girls always seemed to try out. You know, the one where you say Bloody Mary X number of times into a mirror and a monster her face ripped off jumped out of the mirror and ripped your face off too. So, it&#8217;s up to you. Is a cute story, a chunk of sketches and your general love for the rest of Pat&#8217;s work enough to pick up a sketchbook? He is quite good with the rest of his books, you know, and the man sure can draw. Oh, and he also uses this as a chance to plug his hardcover graphic novel called The Claws Come Out, so I suppose you could always go straight for that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_wpsc_stock":"2","_wpsc_price":"3","_wpsc_special_price":"3","_wpsc_sku":"","footnotes":""},"product_tag":[],"wpsc_product_category":[4747,5700],"wpsc-variation":[],"class_list":["post-19747","wpsc-product","type-wpsc-product","status-publish","hentry","wpsc_product_category-comics","wpsc_product_category-pat-lewis"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/wpsc-product\/19747","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/wpsc-product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/wpsc-product"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/wpsc-product\/19747\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=19747"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=19747"},{"taxonomy":"wpsc_product_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fwpsc_product_category&post=19747"},{"taxonomy":"wpsc-variation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fwpsc-variation&post=19747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
