...is fuckin' brilliant. I loved the art. I loved the story. I can't wait for volume three. This is really a revolutionary comic that too me WAY too long to catch up on. I hesitate to even call it a comic. It's poetry. It's fine art. It's a lot more than what we normally call comics.

I wouldnt say Kabuki is not a comic. Comics are a medium that are all encompassing, and can be defined as/by fine art if they have to be. It's merely innovation. Ide consider the series to be both a form of comics and a form of fine art. _________________ My Blog

Yeah, that's kind of what I mean. It's a comic, but it's also more.

Glad you are reading it!
Vol 2 "Dreams" collects my first ever color work / painted work in comics.
Each of the volumes is different in vibe and pace, and I think you will find that it gets better as it goes.
Looking forward to what you think of Metamorphosis and Alchemy. |
