Review:
"There's tension in these small slice of life pieces but also a dream like quality, and that combination somehow captures life's oddness. An impressive debut." -- Chester Brown
"At every zine pair, you will see someone whose work is miles ahead of the others and you think: Baby, what are you doin' in a place like this? Dave Lapp is that kind of find. His stories don't tell you everything, and yet somehow you still know. Unflinchingly honest regarding the cruelty and the softness of the human animal, Lapp's work expertly reveals the absurdity and beauty of life. You may laugh, you may cry." -- Joe Ollmann
