Editorial Reviews

12/12/2016
Every year, the British comics festival Thought Bubble produces a short collection of shorter comics. This anniversary anthology collects all 10 years of the collections, featuring top creators from both sides of the Atlantic and the winners of the festival’s own comic art award. Most entries are only a page long, which doesn’t provide a lot of space for storytelling. A handful of pieces stand out: a glimpse of an alternate-history comic book store by Gail Simone and Tula Lotay, an ode to summer by Hwei Lim and Emma Rios, instructions for hosting a comics jam by Sarah McIntyre and David O’Connell, and a fable by Emily Rose Lambert. But most are prettier to look at than they are satisfying to read, and as the book continues, more and more installments are transparently advertisements for the creators’ ongoing comics. That said, it’s still an attractive, eclectic overview of the non-superhero comics field over the past decade. (Oct.)

Publishers Weekly

LIBRARY JOURNAL — Celebrating the winning stories of writers, artists, colorists, and letterers of the Thought Bubble Comic Art
Competition, hosted by the nonprofit Thought Bubble Festival, which has gathered in Leeds, England, annually since 2007, this collection offers works both familiar and new. A wide range of creators, including Charlie Adlard, Emma
Ríos, Sean Phillips, and Annie Wu, have made their mark at the renowned event. Some of the pieces exhibit a traditional style (H.P. Lovecraft's
“The Hound,” adapted by Stuart Gordon, illustrated by Tula Lotay),
while others take on a more experimental tone (Lee Barnett and Oliver Redding's
“Rain Falling Like Hammers”). Whether the featured tales are excerpts of larger works or self-contained stand-alones isn't entirely clear
(some seem to be capturing the hustle and bustle of visiting the festival itself), yet all are smart and compelling.
Verdict Although geared toward adults, much of this compilation will be enjoyed by YA audiences. [Note: All proceeds from the sale of this comic go to Barnardo's Children's
Charity.-Ed.]-Cassidy Charles, Madison P.L., NJ
