This goofy novel gives an entirely new treatment to the little gray men from outer space.

The wide-ranging, fast-paced story touches on conspiracies, invasions, awkward penetrations and the media perception of the wacky fellows. The hillbilly protagonist and his Federal/spook lady counterpart are pretty lackluster, but the real star is the chain-smoking, fun-seeking alien, Archibald. Archibald steals every scene he's in, and may be one of the most quotable (and strangely adorable) sidekicks in recent comic history.

There's a plot, but mostly it is an excuse to watch Archibald go bonkers and the other characters swap clips. If you get this for nothing else, get it for the brilliant Templesmith art. His madcap style is the perfect match for the wild story and offbeat characters

I recently purchased this comic expecting what I usually do. Excellent...very good artwork, and it was funny to boot too...not much to say, but its worth the buy.

decent. not as good as wormwood. but a solid effort. the main alien guy makes it worth a read. hes humorous.
