Amazing comics from Nate Powell! The comics by Nate are wonderfully drawn and take a few reads to really understand and appreciate, but their depth and beauty come out in these readings. His stories are funny, heartfelt, and cryptic. The art is detailed and alluring, while the stories are more cryptic and difficult.

Issue Four concludes--if rather inconclusively--the "Satellite Worlds" arc Powell began in Issue Three. The intertwined threads of narrative take alternate turns of surreality, apocalyptic fear, wry humor, and poignant immediacy. A young cartoonist sees death, and later finds his body temporarily evaporated as he hammers at a typewriter. Dysfunctional lovebirds fight over millet. A boy in a cape catches fish by holding out his hand. Gorgeous, delicate, this comic works its way into your muscles. (Rosemary)
