SHORT STACK and
MEATLOAF FREAK
by Duane Ballenger
(

Review by Rick Bradford
Short Stack is a collection of goofy doodles, the originals of which were apparently inserted into the
Wide Awake #4 anthology, which I think is a great idea (even though my copy doesn't have one – hey, what gives?). My favorite drawings are of a mosquito and a well-dressed carrot.
Meatloaf Freak is a tiny comic about a critter with an unhealthy obsession. Thank goodness for the kindly taxi driver who helps because he knows he "can't get wrapped up in that life again." But is it enough?
Is it enough?
As with other books from Wide Awake, the production on these is top notch. Check out the website for info on their available publications.
