Joe Kelly and Max Fiumara have really out done themselves. Four Eyes kicks off with an amazing first issue. Only Joe Kelly can recreate 1930's New York City but with Dragons and make me not raise an eyebrow in confusion. The narrative of the main character, a 1st generation young boy trying to be the be man of the house after his father's death, is compelling and heart felt. The Art is fantastic! Max Fiumara who to me is a blend of Tim Sales and Gabriel Ba gives the book a nostalgic feel with a fairy tale twist. I look forward to issue 2.
Story: 5 - Excellent
Art: 5 - Excellent
That's a perfect comparison of the art. He is very much a mix of Ba and Sale. I thought it all looked sorta familiar. Brillaint!
