Title: Funky, finally....
Product review: Wow. I thought the down'n'dirty funky feel of underground comix was dead and gone, but this one proves ya wrong. A wierd little hobo fella living in NYC, The Scrounge has Zen-simple dreams of working at a burger joint run and staffed by fellow freaks like him; not for pay, mind you, just for food and to sleep in the dumpster out back (Zen-simple, remember). It reads as a string of shorter stories, densely packed with some of the most bombastic verbiage around. The art is a beautifully tangled spectacle, detailed to the point of obsession, leading the eye in tornado-like twists and turns thru every gnarled page. This Grant guy is on his way to a good reputation as a cartoonist, judging from what's in this book. It's definitely not for the kiddies, but everyone else should check this one out. Another job well done by those Candle Light Press guys.
