Animation cartoonist extraordinaire Bill Plympton joins the NBM line-up with a graphic novel advance look at his next goofy feature-length animated film!

Yes, vengeance, as the truth is out! Corporate bigwigs wanted his mission a failure! Our valiant (and now rather hirsute) astronaut unleashes the aliens on an aghast humanity!

Então um dia eu entrei no banheiro do quarto de hóspedes pra tomar banho porque o meu chuveiro não estava com água quente. Deixei o chuveiro ligado pra ir esquentando a água e quando comecei a tirar a roupa, olhei para a pilha de livros que meu irmão leva pro banheiro ler.
O que me chamou atenção para este aqui é que não tinha nada a ver com biologia, crescimento de cogumelos, anatomia humana ou livros psicodélicos que meu irmão geralmente lê. Era uma história em quadrinhos. Achei uma graça e comecei a ler.
Vinte minutos depois, o chuveiro ainda estava ligado e eu ainda estava lendo. Resolvi que aquela não era a melhor hora para tomar banho.

Se você já leu um livro que conseguiu te fazer esquecer de qualquer coisa que você tivesse pra fazer no momento, vai entender como eu me senti. A diferença é que Bill Plympton conseguiu isso com uma história em quadrinhos tão fascinante quanto bizarra. :)

Bill Plympton would never deliver something sensible, and this is satisfyingly bonkers. But somehow Plympton seems to hold back from the most creative excesses we have seen from him, and restrains himself to a more linear flavour of sci-fi craziness. Some great moments add to the entertaining chaos and ultimately the book succeeds, even if we can beleive that Bill is capable of more.

It's not good, but i'm keeping it because I used to think this was AWESOME. Now that I know what good comics are, reading through this idiotic, pointlessly gory, sex-filled piece of crap... embarrassing.
