Curses by Kevin Huizenga
3.0
I really enjoy Huizenga's illustration style.
There's a neatness and simplicity to it.
I REALLY enjoyed the Glenn Ganges story included in [b:The Best American Comics 2009|3427455|The Best American Comics 2008|Lynda Barry|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1433983853s/3427455.jpg|3468318] (on gaming after work at a .com). This collection isn't quite as strong to me as that story. There isn't the humor. Some of the selections feel like essays in comic form (very text reliant). This is more thought-provoking than the gaming selection.
I especially liked the illustrated text of adoption documentation. I sense that much of the content is barely-fictionalized autobiography.
But I want more from this sequential artist. Looking forward to the next stuff he publishes.
