A fun short comic probably only let down a touch by its pacing. ( )

What would you do if you woke up one day, and suddenly your childhood imaginary friends? And you get attacked by monsters? Astrid *thought* she was a normal teenager, but she's in for quite a surprise! Fun and strange, I liked the characters and *almost* wish I could trade places with Astrid! ( )

This reminded me of "God Save the Queen" by Mike Carey and John Bolton in its mixing of British Youth culture and Faeries, but I would say of the two books I enjoyed "Suburban Glamour" more. Astrid, the central character, is delightful and her and her friends feel like real teenagers as they go about thier daily lives, and the fantasy storyline is engaging with a a wounderly uplifting ending. But the real star of the show is Mckelvie's beautiful art, every page is simply stunning! Recomended for sure. ( )
