Mind blowing story and Illustrations
In a wonderfully written, picture book, Gray Cells, Volume 1+, Lawrence Goodman wraps a great story, along with the talented, artist illustrations by Kay, sending the protagonist, Lina Santos on a journey to cover a story about a missing child. After getting pushed by her editor, and the boy’s mom, Lina enters the city and finds more clues, and also an interesting character, The Frog Man. With many barriers of police, the typical traps of the city, and a difficult mother, Lina continues on her quest to find the boy, Josh.
I loved the characters created– the bad mother, Cherry, who plays the part to the max with her crinkled face and sneers, pack-a-day smoking, plus all the F-bombs she throws in the story, and along with a stint in jail and her rehab friends. Dante, the mysterious one, who wants to help find Josh, but puts up a lot of barriers. And, finally, Tim Arthur, the typical editor, on his final years at the paper, trying to convince another wannabe writer to come up with a great story.
All in All, great character depictions, superb color drawings with high-end action shots and great narrative, which was easy to follow throughout the entire work. I recommend this work of art to anyone who enjoys a good crime thriller inside a picture or comic book that brings excellent illustrative work to the reader.

I must admit, I love to read comics. As a Belgian, we are raised with the
classic comics such as Lucky Luke.
However from the first moment I read Gray Cells Comic, I was sold.
Such an amazing beautiful layout, very well painted and the story was
fantastic!
I really liked the cover too! So if you like to read interesting and beautiful
painted comics, don't hesitate and read Gray Cells Comic.
I give with lots of pleasure a 5 star rating and I hope plenty of Comics will
follow!

This is such a good book! This is the first comic I have ever read and I am honestly super impressed! The writing and the art is so beautiful! It was a quick read and kept me engaged the entire time! I loved the story of Lina and Dante, how the author portrayed real world issues that are going on today such as domestic abuse and police brutality. I always believe it is important to be vocal about those things. Highly recommend this!

I loved this graphic lovely it was dark and twisted and fed into our fears of the bogeyman as children I also really liked the start of something special between our two heroes in this story and can’t wait to read more. A really pleasant surprise of a read
