Customer Reviews

A very blunt look at life

I picked this book up at used book store for $5.00 the other day not knowing anything about the artist or the storyline. As an aspiring aritst myself and hopeful graphic novelist I found it very inspiring. I love how the characters are no sugar coated. Not even himself. He's not a hero and the people who come in and out of life during this time aren't all villians either. I've learned a lot by reading it this is style is amazing. A great read at whatever price I think this is really wroth it.

In Love With "Love"

I discovered the second of four issues and spent a few months in 1993 finding the other three in comic shops throughout southern Michigan. Few searches have been so well repaid. It's one of the few things that truly recall and personify its eras--the universal optimism of the talented 20-something, the sense of personal freedom of the early 80's and the willingness to publish any comic of the early 90's. "David Chelsea in Love" may be the ultimate love-horror comic, but it's also a time machine that I find myself using more often as the age it captures fades.
