Review # 1 was written on 2009-05-20 00:00:00 Lorenzo Lemos I love Hilary Price's comics. They're clever and cute and funny because it's true. My only beef with her is that she doesn't take the semantics of writing seriously. I cringe whenever I see a misplaced apostrophe or a complete factual error in one of her strips. As she says she considers herself a writer who draws (rather than an artist who writes), I really wish she'd take the writing more seriously! (I also wonder where the editor is in this process). That said, I love her comics. I kept bursting out laughing as I was reading this. My husband, from the other chair, said, "Must you? I'm sitting here reading a book about a child whose whole family is murdered, and then he's raised by ghosts. Your laughter seems really disrespectful." "But honey," I explained, "a cat, a dog, and a baby are standing in front of a spinner divided into three sections, one for each of them. Above the spinner it says, 'Who will barf today?'" He cracked up too.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-12-21 00:00:00 Lisa Brown Some funny biting strips divided into themes. Some strips are along the same lines as The Far Side but with more scratchy drawings. The filler info about getting the book to print was no doubt intended to be funny but I found it boring.
