5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome writing, awesome art!, March 30, 2004

This review is from: Fear of Comics (Love and Rockets) (Paperback)
Gilbert Hernandez's "Fear of Comics" is a wonderful anthology of comic shorts that serves as an excellent showcase of his first-rate writing and dramatic sensibilities. Ranging in tone from zany to macabre to absurdist each of the dozen or so stories (along with another dozen or so comic-strips) are narrative treats unto themselves. From the paranoia of the sci-fi tale, "Return of the Tzik," to the surreal horrorscapes of "The Legend of the Crying Woman: La Llorona," this book will surely have a story or two of interest to anyone - fans of Hernandez or not.

And, it certainly goes without saying that the stark black and white visuals in every panel actually lives up to the quality of writing working hand in hand to enhance the overall quality of the book every step of the way. A quality book not to be missed by any fans of the graphic novel medium.

This review is from: Fear of Comics (Love and Rockets) (Paperback)
Fantastic and Bizarre. Hernandez know how to draw strange worlds with his pencil. The Fear of Comics it is also a "Fear of Love", because everything here happens around the love stories from his characters.
