circularcubes 's review for:

The Underwater Welder by Jeff Lemire

4.0

---

I liked this much more than I did the other Jeff Lemire work I've read, Trillium. It's starker, less shiny and thrilling, but more human. The story is a simple one and it spoke to me. As a side note, I loved Lemire's paneling - using multiple rows to depict a larger sequence, or the full pages dedicated to one image. I'm not the biggest fan of how Lemire does faces, but he does have a good story to tell with this one.
