By David Lasky and Greg Stump All ages; 32 pages; $2.95 ISBN: 1-891867-31-8; Diamond Code: DEC02 2415 Fresh
out of Seattle it's what the "cool kids" have been waiting for. Two of
the hippest young talents in comics have teamed-up to create a book that
speaks to their alienated yet powerful generation. Hip young dudes and
goth-girls look for love and meaning in a "post-grunge" Seattle.
In "Out of Africa", Chloe is a cute voyeur who pines for the scenester she watches from across the street. "Lost in Space" introduces Penelope, a lovely space-case who must fight the awkward advances of geeky guys, as well as her own loneliness, while her guitar-hero boyfriend is on the road. From pompous rock stars, to body piercings, to big hair, it's all here, And it's "all that." All systems go! Issue one hit stores
at the end of 1998 and was nominated for the Harvey Award for Best New Series
