5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Comic Anthology   August 19, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The Flight Anthology - an anthology of short comics from people with an art background - is now up to the fifth volume. It's a wonderfully creative book - many of the artists are returning, but they still keep it fresh, and all of them are quite talented.

Like the last few volumes, it starts off with Michel Gagne's ongoing wordless "Rex" tale, as good as ever; in general the writing effectively complements the wonderful art, even if it never reaches the same level. A few of them are flawed - "Seasons" is a little long, "Voyage" a little obvious, and "Delilah Dirk and the Aqueduct" and "N" weren't that interesting, but otherwise even the simpler stories (there are 21 in total) work.

And the art is outstanding. Kazu Kibuishi (here "The Courier") never seems to disappoint; Reagan Lodge's "The Dragon", Sarah Mesinga's "The Changeling" were particularly beautiful. The latter and J.P. Ahonen's "Worry Dolls" had quite neat stories as well. As a whole, Volume 5 is one of the better volumes of the "Flight" series, and a very inventive comic anthology.
