Stop forgetting to remember

This was the best graphic novel I have read in awhile.  Peter Kuper exploited every advantage that the comics format has to offer and to great success.  I loved the blocky artwork with a little scratchiness to it and really enjoyed the sepia colored flashbacks.

The story was amazing and I had to force myself to put the book away so it wouldn’t be over too soon.  This is the type of book that makes me despise comics in that it takes such a long time for an author to create another work.

Breaking it in

On my way to work this morning, I glanced at the old odometer and saw 100 miles. So far so good on my little MadAss. It’s a hoot to ride around. The streets can be a touch bumpy on a little bike and even a 30mph max speed can be dangerous so I picked up some new safety gear.

Tomorrow the UPS man should deliver me a jacket with armor. Laugh if you want, but safety comes first for Annie Jo.

For all the naysayers out there, more proof of hiking activity. This time I got quite a view at the top.
