“Stone Fruit”

By | May 24, 2021 | Reviews

Lee Lai’s debut graphic novel “Stone Fruit” (Fantagraphics) is mature in so many respects. It’s wise and gentle about relationships. It’s narratively and artistically confident. It’s patiently restrained and full of deft choices. The paradox is that such mature art pays such poignant tribute to childlikeness. Lai unsparingly shows the ways we hurt and get […]

“Impossible Jones, Vol. 1: Grin and Gritty!”

By | May 21, 2021 | Reviews

One of my all-time favorite DC comics is Kyle Baker’s “Plastic Man.” It has wit, it has charm, it’s zany fun, and it utilizes Plastic Man’s powers to tell a story that would never work without them. Now “Impossible Jones” is not like Baker’s “Plastic Man” in aesthetic, commentary, or form, not to mention it’s not a DC property, but it does share all the rest, even down to the tension between hero and crook, though Jones is just a smidge more...impish than good ol’ Eel O’Brian.
