Set in the Toronto fine arts scene, this penultimate issue of Local focuses on a young art student trying to manipulate the scene as best she can, who sees a source of material too good to pass up: Megan McKeenan. But as Megan turns thirty, how will she deal with this cocky upstart?
REVIEW by Brian Fisher
Welcome, my friends to one of my all time favorite books: Local. This book has honestly changed the way I look at comics. And guess what? it's written by Brian Wood (for those of you new to reading this column you'll soon learn that I bow at the throne of Brian Wood). Never before has a book taken such a realistic and dramatic look at everyday people and all their flaws. This book illustrates perfectly how everybody in the world, even those with the best of intentions is a raging jerk sometimes. Excellent stuff, and one of my highest possible recommendations!
I give it 10 out of 10 Grahams
