Reviews
"This is Alex Robinson's best book, and one of the rare comics not written by Stan Lee to perfectly capture the tragedy and triumph of being a teenager. Totally recommended." --Brian K. Vaughan, author of Y: The Last Man, Ex Machina, and Saga
"My favorite comic of the year." --Jeff Smith, creator of Bone
"With this slim volume, Robinson cements his reputation as a master cartoonist." --Publishers Weekly
"Touching and funny ... By the story's end, wish fulfillment has become something much more challenging and, frankly, beautiful. There's a lot going on in this little book." --Cory Doctorow, Boing Boing
