Luke is depressed, afflicted by a severe case of metaphoritis and deadlines that don't really exist. Afraid of being forgotten by the comics community and unable to find motivation in anything besides jealousy, he sets out to create an award-winning comic that will remedy all of his problems. Exploring themes of art and existence through worlds of words and numbers both real and imagined, Luke Healy's new graphic novel includes the Ignatz Award and Slate Cartoonist Studio Prize nominated story 'The Unofficial Cuckoo's Nest Study Companion.'
Reviews with the most likes.
I REALLY liked Cuckoo's Nest. I thought it was clever and liked the mixture of text and image, like a play about a play. I often find meta appealing. Good, consistent style.
The connecting parts were also good, especially the interactions with —well not just his father, but also the other characters' relationships with fathers.
