review:
'Taco El Gato #1' by Candy Briones is the first issue in a new series. I was pretty much lost and confused through the whole thing, but the art was at least unusual enough to keep me turning pages.

Taco Fluffy is an adopted cat who thinks he is a dog, or at least acts like one. He finds himself constantly in situations that go from bad to worse. We learn about the world he is a part of and how he was adopted. There are lots of seemingly not very nice people in this world. We don't learn how Taco got his name, but we do learn he is an uncle.

Story wise, it's kind of a mess. It doesn't feel very linear, and most of the time, I felt like there was more story I was missing somewhere. A non-linear plot can work, but you have to clue the reader in a bit more. As an introduction to a series, it's difficult to say I'd want to read more. The art is also a bit of a mess, but I found it at least more interesting. With a bit more development, this could be interesting, but as it stands, I have a hard time recommending it.

I received a review copy of this comic book from Rosarium Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this comic book.
