NPRon Local:
Ryan (Kelly)'s inks bring a meticulous, well-researched attention to each new locale that will have residents playing spot-the-neighborhood-landmark. And the best thing about the oversized, hardcover edition of the run, in stores today, is the ability to pore over Kelly's rich backgrounds and appreciate their detail without risking an aneurysm.
Wood and Kelly set out to show nothing less than how Megan herself gets shaped by each new city, and by the particular choices -- good and bad -- she makes there. Over the course of the series, we watch her reckless (okay: dumb) behavior give way to reflection, her youthful, omnidirectional anger gradually recede to reveal a quieter kind of strength.

Speaking of LOCAL #3, nice reference to that issue in THE NEW YORK FOUR. ;-]
ReplyDeleteI bought mine, and I love the heaviness of the book and its pages. Very rich book. I'm up to issue five so far.
