I recently read De:Tales, which I liked a lot, so I'm happy to see you guys telling your own stories again. Looking forward to it!

I just posted this to my own website and wanted to share about this comic.

Okay. Stop what you are doing and BUY THIS COMIC NOW! Daytripper by Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá is just about the most mature and fantastic thing I've ever read. It is a 10-issue mini series on issue 5 right now. Each issue is sorta stand-alone but there are connecting threads.

This comic deals with life and death.

*SORTA SPOILER* It starts out like a eulogy and feels like the best eulogy ever. Weird, right? It is about a sometimes mans life and, in each issue... his death. This is not about the outcome of the story, but the journey and appreciation of life in each of Bras' journey's. It doesn't matter that you know he might die at the end... we all die... the question is about the quality and choices of ones life. *END SORTA SPOILER*

Just read this thing. Start at #1 if you can, but anywhere is fine. I think this reads better in monthly issue form than it would in a trade paperback. The time to reflect on each issue is key. Check it.

I am certainly going to check this one. I've checking you work and it is pretty good, congrats. I think I will change the monthly purchase of Generic Cialis for this
