A collection of short stories. I would recommend this for casual comic readers who are not into super heroes.

My favorite of the Flight anthologies so far. I love them all, but each new one seems to be at least a bit better than the last.
There were one or two stories I didn't care much about, but I still liked them. The art is beautiful. I particularly love Michel Gagné's style in "The Broken Path". "The Aqueduct" was an interesting blend of fantasy subgenres. "The Dragon" has an interesting story and striking art, and is perhaps my favorite in the book... along with "n", "The Chosen One", and "Scenes In Which the Earth Stops Spinning and Everybody Flies Into a Wall", and numerous others...
Any lover of fiction, art, and/or graphic novels should definitely check this book out. I eagerly await the release of the next anthology in July.

Ever since I picked up Volume Three of Flight on a whim, I have been in love with this series. The theme of escape is a constant thread between the short stories in each volume.
What I love most about Flight is the combination of cute, serious, wacky, surreal, visual, and verbal styles of the different contributors.
At a convention, I overheard someone talking about how there are no good North American graphic novelists. Before I could interrupt and extole the virtues of this anthology, they had moved on, but for anyone looking for amazing North American work, I suggest the Flight anthology (especially Volume 5) as a springboard.
