The toughest part of reviewing anything whether it’s comics, movies, or games is removing yourself from the equation. A piece of art can be beautifully filmed or masterfully composed and some people will still simply not like it. In the news recently, Quentin Tarantino’s films are often viewed as masterpiece-level material. However, his dialogue-heavy, blood-soaked cinema just might not sit well with some people, and that’s okay. What we love is very much defined by our personal tastes for violence, comedy, and drama.
That long-winded tangle of words is of course an introduction to Todd, The Ugliest Kid On Earth #1, a book brilliant in its delivery yet ultimately not for everyone. This is a comic jam packed with violence, debauchery, and every nasty thing under the cruel and indifferent sun that inhabits the world of Ken Kristensen.
