Not Drawn By Warren Although Amazon lists this album as created by Adam Warren, only the text is by Warren, while the pictures are drawn by a host of rather mediocre artists. Most of the time, I found myself thinking how hilarious this could have been if drawn by Warren himself, but now most gags fall to the ground with a thud.
With many different artists, the graphical style is changing too much, and none of them manage to produce anything above the mediocre. The stories are as good as you would expect them from Warren's hand, but the whole album just demonstrates how important it is to have a talented artist rendering the author's vision.
This book is a lot of wated potential.
Meanwhile This TPB is issues 66-70, and has issues 43 & 44 added. The first part, isses 66-70 art work is done well, the story line is well written, well the last part of the book, isses 43 & 44 was well writen and entertaining, the art work had much to be desired. The first part, Caitlin has to help Ivana to idetify a new Gen Active. Interesting play into the story from the radio, kind of cute. The second story can be a bit confusing, it was about Roxy and Grunge, and had lots of flashbacks. The thrid story is about, Sara and and has to do with her past and her Uncle, a nice story. The fourth is about a pop song that grows to dominate all media outlets, and is driving Caitlin crazy. I gave it 3 stars as the stories were good, i think they were just average.
