    ...And noone to answer them

    Art - While the art of this book isn't the best stylistically or in skill it is the best I've seen this week in terms of understanding the basic mechanics of photography, ie focus and camera position and that type of thing. Understanding that stuff allows you to build a better more interesting scene that you can use to manipulate your audience's focus so as to get them to pay attention to things you want them to. It's not needed in this book, but it is there and well done for it.

    Story - The basic story is pretty much Brand finding the info he needs and then going to the next place to get the info he needs. It's a filler story that could have had a lot more in it. The dialogue is a bit like what happens when you have a word on the tip of your tongue and you just can't think what it is and that gets really frustrating, especially with a comic because you can't ask if you're getting what thy are talking about.

    Characterization - I get the distinct feeling that Boston Brand likes to mess with people and play practical jokes. That even in his state of being and his having to help these people he still messes with them quite a bit. It's an interesting idea, but it also seems to go against all the other times I've seen Boston in terms of character, but at the same time i think those happen after this and as such also this is shows how he used to be and hopefully it will end with him learning the lesson and showing him going on his path to how he is now.

It's not as surreal as the previous one, but it has a great sense of design, and the juxtaposition of Deadman sitting unaware reading his book with the incredibly psychotic librarian ready to strike behind him just sends chills down my spine. The artwork is still a good kind of cartoony. A werid almost more realistic kind of cartoony that makes things serious in a good way without being too serious to deny the comedy. And the comedy again is...
