Ok I just read through it last night and this is my impression - it's good for most techno fans but I think that a lot of comic book collectors would be miffed. The artwork at times does waver but then turn the page and it's amazing - hand drawn images over what appear to be computer created - gives a f'cking amazing 3D effect. Best pages no doubt! There is little background into who this lady is though. This is, of course, coming from someone who does not have any previous Orietta St. Cloud comics and there are several references to past issues within the comic (anyone know if there are copies still available of old St. Cloud comics, I'd like to know what is going on). Sometimes the visuals were down right confusing - I had no idea what I was looking at or what going on in certain frames, this coming from a Jack Kirby fan. That said - I do see a lot of connections in the abstract images of Oldham and Kirby. Anyone familiar with who Oldham appreciates? What comics/visual artists turn his crank? I don't know how much time Oldham put into producing this, and I know how time consuming and tiring it is to produce even a single issue (especially an independent), but the story seems hurried. It's like a vignette and not really a whole story or doesn't give much impression that there has to be any follow-up. I'd like to see more and I hope that Mr. Oldham finds more opportunities to produce his comics. I'd keep buying them. The CD rocks but damn I wish I had a poster in my package!
Just my opinion - please buy the comic, read it, listen to the CD while reading and form your own opinion. And if could give me your impression that would be cool.
