Very
cute. We are introduced to the Bone's seemingly right in the middle of
the story as they are being run out of their home town. We follow them
to a magical forest, full of interesting characters. I fully intend on
reading the whole series!

This is an amusic collection of short comics. The stories are for the most part funny, strange, and heartfelt. Recommended.
Title: The Beats: A Graphic History
Interesting history

A series of articles about "The Beats", primarily focussing on Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsburg and William Burroughs, in "graphic novel" form. I found this to be an interesting read, but, aside from making it easy to read, did not find that comic format added much to the telling of the story, and in fact, was rather awkward in parts. Worth reading, however. A few stories in particular ("Beatnik Chicks" by Joyce Brabner and "Tuli Kupferberg" by Jeffrey Lewis and T.K.) I thought were very well done.
Title: Ubik
Interesting, but dated

I appreciate that this book was written in the '60s and a lot has happened in scifi since then, and that these ideas were fresh back then. I find Dick's writing rather clunky, though, and have a hard time looking past that.

Short, funny, mind-twisting story. Highly recommended.
