The Book of Leviathan by Peter Blegvad

3.0

This was a very strange comic strip in book form. Sort of like Calvin and Hobbes with less funny and more weird philosophical stuff. Not to say it wasn't funny, but that wasn't the main point. It was sort of a metaphysical exploration of our world from the innocent and unbiased view of a child. Or something. To be honest, I feel like a decent amount of it went over my head, but it was still an enjoyable read. There were lots of philosophical and literary references, which I got just enough to realize what they were.

It was really fun at times, but it felt a bit like it was trying to be too smart. There were some strips that had obscure references that I only half got, but then there were others that were based around a pun.

So for the time investment, it was good. Some really cool ideas and good strips, but somewhat hit or miss.
