review:
'Rice Boy' by Evan Dahm is a 548 epic journey through a strange world. The art and worldbuilding are bizarre and wonderful.
A small unassuming creature with no arms or mouth is minding his own business when he is approached and told that he is the chose one. The creatures that approach him are a mechanical man named T.O.E. (The One Electronic), and his partner Calabash. They find him after the previous chosen one has died. Rice Boy sets out on his journey and meets friends and enemies along the way. There is also court intrigue, strange cities and any number of odd beings.
I really liked this bizarre world. I love the small unassuming main character who seems to look for kindness instead of violence. T.O.E. with his constantly changing face made out of black and white media stills was an interesting character. I felt constantly surprised by this story.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Iron Circus Comics in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
