This impressive book collects all 14 issues of the Mister Blank comic book series, plus the hard-to-find issue zero! Read the entire saga of Sam Smith, featuring killer robots, mime femme fatales, mad science, and global conspiracies; plus sketches and brain-pickings from creator Chris Hicks. A slick and fun adventure for the fanboy and neophyte alike.
Quirky, fast-paced, and twisty, "Mister Blank" makes for a fun whirlwind read. The combination of myth, technology, and epic made for a fresh and inventive story with more twists and turns than I could count. The dialog is tongue in cheek and witty, and Sam Smith's "Everyman" hero is easy to like. The artwork has a clean style that gives it quite a bit of pop. A solid read all around, and while it's out of print, used copies are inexpensive and easy to come by.
Great art, great plotting, great layout... this is just one great buy. I found this when I went to New York City back in 2000 as a "blind buy." It was hands down one of the best purchases I've ever made. I can't recommend it more.
