review 1: Goodness gracious! What was that?? And why do I feel so weird?!? If David Lynch ever directed a movie for Disney, I guess the result would be the movie equivalent of this comic book: cute, candy-colored, beautiful, mysterious, surreal, enigmatic, fearless, subversive, dark, obsessive, merciless, disturbing, brutal, deranged, and more than a little painful. An artfully delivered punch in the gut - what more could you ask for?
review 2: Experimental cartooning and well-paced narrative seem to be a trade off in many alternative comics. With Ant Colony, DeForge has achieved a perfect balance between the two. DeForge maintains his signature cartooning style and incredible control of page layout, while bringing a deeply humanistic quality to the ants followed throu... moregh the story. You may even find yourself relating to this misfit group of ants over some surprising topics (relationships, societal pressure, etc.). Undoubtedly DeForge’s best and most complete work to date, it serves as a great read for both veterans and newcomers of the alternative comics scene. less
