Moxie, My Sweet


Moxie, My Sweet by Mark Campos and the FineComix Collective

There are two types of stories in this 80 page anthology. The simple, sweet, slice of life stories about aimless musicians, card reading lesbians, and lonely guys in the desert. Then there are the crazy, spinning out of control, fairy tale like stories about talking cats, futuristic hamburger stands, and evil house hold items. There is even a trippy one based on Led Zeppelin, Lord of the Rings and pot smoking.

Surprisingly, I liked both types of stories here (I usually hate the fantasy type stuff).

Highlights include Elijah Brubaker's cinderella story that features a house full of cats instead of dwarfs. And Kaz Strzepek's short piece about a man who makes a girlfriend out of paper mache.
