Review # 1 was written on 2018-08-12 00:00:00 Shawn Finley ¡¡¡INCREDIBLE!!! This is almost all Jaime whose work I began to enjoy more than Gilbert's Palomar starting here and moving forward.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-05-12 00:00:00 Lisa Selden A volume with a title like this and a cover like this, you'd think it was going to explore the mystery that is Izzy. No dice. The title story is only the first one, reveals only a tiny fraction of her backstory, and the rest of Jaime's work in the book is devoted to advancing the lives of previously-background characters like Doyle, Danita & Ray. The contributions from Gilbert (I think this is the last volume in this set to include both Bros.) are...odd. He offers no Palomar stories, but a brief bio on Frida Kahlo is interesting if dry, and his other pieces tend toward the abstract & non-narrative. He catches up in the next volume, though. Not what I'd call groundbreaking, but it does fill in some blanks that probably didn't need to be filled.
