Another issue in the low key anti-comics (as in "Hey kids, comics!") / business-report cover format ("the business of comics is business, and the best business is business as usual") continues to present Tomine's disenchanting, disillusioning comics.  Empathic readers will cringe with embarrassment at the painful reveals of the fully fleshed characters that populate the two stories here.  The first, of suburban middle class pathos, recorded in fine full color detail in Tomine's mature style; the second, of PTSD alienation, is dedicated to Yoshihiro Tatsumi, and is rendered in a more gritty black and white that bears obvious marks of Tatsumi's influence, while remaining clearly Tomine's own.
