review 1: The only Filipino graphic novel nominated in the Eisner Awards for best new graphic album, Elmer indeed deserves international recognition. Created by Gerry Alanguilan, Elmer is a story about chickens who have mysteriously gained human intelligence and consciousness. It follows their chilling tale of survival for acceptance in this world and their struggle to co-exist with the human race and to live with equal rights. Elmer is worth buying and is a good read.
review 2: Original and entertaining and glad I got it, but in the end, slightly disappointing. Beyond the initial cleverness of sentient chickens, there was nothing to make this particularly interesting. Even if it had just been done entirely as a colorful,lush, and rich graphic novel, rather than merely... more as an adult-themed black and white comic book with a firmer cover, it might have pushed it into the 5 star range. Coulda' been great, but as it is, 3.5 stars. less
