This “time out of time” episode of this strip delivers some obscure backstory and some “what ifs” from the lives of Daisy, Esther and Susan. What if the girls had never met? What happens when the girls head to London to hang out with Esther’s fabulously adult friend Shelley? What is Shelley’s story? These questions and more are asked and answered in this skim but densely packed volume. 3.5 stars. I can’t give my girls a lower score than that. This series of short stories was a mixed bag, some with the expected hilarity and one or two that were just kind of weird. It was interesting to see all the different artists’ depictions of the comic, but it also threw me off to keep switching gears visually. As a big fan of Allison’s, I enjoyed it and would recommend to other fans. I’d pick a different book for newbies. Probably more like 2.5 stars. Not as fun as the mother series. I liked the lead story, a What If? spoof that looks at what would have happened if Esther, Susan and Daisy hadn't met and become friends on the first day of college. The rest of the book just a hodgepodge collection of odds and ends that is okay but features way too much of an uninteresting side character named Shelley. First the lead characters get deep into Shelley's love life, and then we follow her through a solo time travel (?!) adventure featuring Hedy Lamarr. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieGiant Days (Specials)
College is a time of trials and tribulations, and not all of Esther, Susan, and Daisy's made it into the main Giant Days series of college shenanigans. Head back to school with Esther, Susan, and Daisy in this collection of shorts and bonus material from the Eisner Award-nominated series Giant Days. Experience the "universally beloved" terror Desmond Fishman, the magic of London at Christmas, and that one unfortunately unforgettable experience of the girls' first music festival. Features a special "what-if" story in which Susan, Esther, and Daisy never became friends!. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

The shorter stories weren't especially my favorite. I thought the one with Fishman was too out of place for this series and just seemed so disconnected from literally everything else in the "Giant Days" world. And then the two with the missing food and the band were alright, just not nearly as good as the main GD comics always are! They got a chuckle out of me but they just lack substance.
This still remains my favorite contemporary comic series and I love it dearly; this collection was a nice little treat to read but I definitely prefer the main stories. :) ( )
