Aaron rated a book it was ok Chiisakobee #1 by Minetarō Mochizuki	Error rating book. Refresh and try again. Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Another reviewer compared this comic to Wes Anderson's films (and indeed Mochizuki has published an adaptation of Anderson). As with an Anderson film, the author seems to be making fun of his own characters, and the reader is unable to sympathize or ...more

I loved these books, except for the misogyny. Graves seems to have had a low opinion of women.

These are evocative, well-drawn stories, but this book feels too short and insubstantial.

A complete waste of my time. The humor was unfunny, there was no plot, nothing was at stake, and I didn't like any of the characters except the goblin. I liked the first two books in this series because they had an interesting gimmick, but this book ...more

This was a major influence on Alan Moore, Kurt Busiek, and possibly others. It's full of ideas that reappear in Miracleman, Watchmen, Astro City, etc. However, Superfolks is far worse than the comics it inspired. Superfolks can't decide how seriously ...more
