4-15 comics
4-15 Issues #1 and #2 by WildeMan Ent.
I'm trying to remember whom I promised a review to in mid-December. I think it was this one, so I went online and bought it. Never wait too long to make a purchase.Â
The first issue is a long flashback that sets the tone of the story. Joan is a little girl who loves her parents, but they are taken from her in tragedies. The first tragic death is her father who dies of drowning or beating. This death effects her mother, as if she's haunted by it and she kills herself after a long bout of depression and drug use. Or were they, as the last frame hints as something else. The second episode has a much older Joan about to speak to the boss, but the boss has been sexually harassing his employees, and now it's her turn. But, she trades 'places' and her father is now in the room. What's gonna happen to the pervy boss? Despite the good start, I am a bit confused by the plot. Perhaps the next issues will explain the details further?
The artwork for both issues was interesting, to say the least. I liked the framing and the focal points but I don't like how much paper was left blank. There's way too much blank space per page that could have been used, or switched with a smaller paper size. Issue 2 wasn't much better, though it was improved in some ways. There was a marked improvement in the motion scenes as well as the framing. I'm always happy when I see improvement.
4 out of 5 stars. You can find issues 1-4 at WildeMan Entertainment.
