review 1: Nancy brought it home. Having been a big Feiffer fan way back when, I thought I'd give it a try. It was enjoyable, mostly, but not compelling. And I found myself having a hard time keeping the identities of female characters straight, as some looked very much like some others. I guess I'm more of a reader that a graphic novel guy. But there were some very nice riffs, which Feiffer does as well as anyone.
review 2: Well! This is a doozy. Noir-ish private detectives, alcohol abuse, blackmail, shoplifting, war zones, and lesbianism - what else? I wish there was a tidy Latin word that meant "hating your mom." I would have appreciated it if just one of the female characters with giant doe eyes & similar hairstyles had been a brunette; at some point it got a little ... moredifficult to tell one freakishly tall blonde from the next. Other than that, well worth it. less
