Customer Reviews
Ted Naifeh is rapidly becoming my favorite comic book author and artist. First, Polly and the Pirates – charming (yet not sugar coated) adventures, salty (yet not harmless) adversaries and other characters, a wonderful drawing style that really conveys a sense of dream like otherworldliness while being deceptively simple – I just can’t get enough of this stuff!
Courtney Crumrin tells the story of a misunderstood young naif with two soulless (figuratively!) yuppie parents who move in with an old – a very old – uncle who is dark and brooding in his Victorian manse. Courtney is excluded by her materialistic classmates, hectored by her teachers, and mostly ignored by her parents. In this dark period of her life she discovers that there is more to the town than meets the eye – dark forces, amoral critters, and dangerous magic. Courtney responds with wit and verve.
