a delicious little treat

what fun!when i first found this book, and began flipping through the pages with a friend- i saw the blood and the naked women, and began to think i'd gotten the wrong book. it appeared so violent and gang-bangish. i was WRONG.once i began to read the story of the bambi-eyed nature lover, and her conning boyfriend who really just wants to erase the past and begin fresh (with a zillion obstacles thrown in his path), i was delighted!the blood and naked women are still there (and that bit all depends on your opinions of violence, etc.), but the story is infused with such warmth, humor and fun, i was able to disregard the violence. but be warned, this graphic novel is not for kids, mature readers only!for all of you mature readers :)- look forward to a delightful tale. the price is steep for a book you can read in less than an hour, so i recommend borrowing it from a friend, or the library (like i did). enjoy!

FILM THIS BOOK! Then again, in a way, he already has...

Another great graphic novel (okay, a big, expensive comic book) from one of the premier talents in the biz, Kyle Baker. This may well be the best Baker has come up with yet, certainly outstripping the uneven charms and obscure plotting of "Why I Hate Saturn." In this one, Baker has drawn "cells" from an imaginary animated movie that's fresher and more thrilling than almost anything Hollywood's done in years. These are brilliant storyboards for a movie that cries out to be filmed, a film noir (despite its brilliant colors) that combines romance, action, comedy and violence in startling, artful and thoroughly satisfying ways.

Kyle Baker does it again

I'm a big fan of Kyle Baker, having already read "Cowboy Wally" and "Why I Hate Saturn", so I had high expectations when I got this book for Christmas. They were met and exceeded. Great art and great story. The first few pages pulled me in immediately, and the last few left me thinking about it for days. I particularly liked how he presented three people all arguing in different languages. Check out "I Die at Midnight" too.

Superb artwork, dark twisting story with kink and humor

Kyle Baker is a remarkable artist and this third book is probably his best (although he was hard-pressed to beat "Cowboy Wally"). The graphic interpretation of emotions does not go overboard, while at the same time conveying a perfect balance to the text. Great story, beautiful artwork, Kyle Baker in true form!
