Love love love this book! An unexpected surprise with heart, great writing and beautiful art that gave me the best Mad Magazine vibes. Now comes the hard wait for the final issue. If you skated, or even just spent most of your teens getting into trouble with your loser friends, I’m sure you will adore this book as much as me. It’s got future hit tv series written all over it, so get in early while it’s still cool.
