i love megan kelso

This book has some great stories and marvelous art. The stories vary in subject and tone, but the book radiates a beauty beyond words. Megan's art is simple and "cartoony" and, at times, awe-inspiring. If you only read one comic this month read 'Hicksville'. But if you read two make sure the other one is 'Queen of the Black Black'.
