review:

Komacon is a really cool concept. Take 6 veteran American writers and team them with 6 up and coming artists from Korea to come up with a fresh, creative idea. The result is a fresh, inventive approach.



The stories each a few pages in length and the art styles range all over the place, from painted to pen and ink to idiosyncratic style. There is not a badly drawn story in the book, and the writing pairs up nicely with each.



It's hard to pick a favorite, but it might either be Fire Dog by Colleen Doran and illustrated by Hae Mi Jang, with it's story of a world with a dying sun, and the blind girl who might save everyone, or Smoker by Ben McCool with it's Bill Sienkiewicz inspired art by Jun-Hyuk Choi. Suffice to say, all the stories are great and wonderful introduction to these emerging talents.
