Review by Mark Campos
Yet
another sweet little book out of Finland, small enough to lose underneath my desk for several days. This may be the export edition, since the text has already been translated into English. Six tales which have that wonderful nightmare quality – bad dreams about an elfking with a rat for a brain, a homicidal living apartment, a tracheotomy performed with a rolled-up comic. Marko distorts select panels with a copier or scanner, conveying the effect of speed or derangement. Very disturbing. I'd suggest you try to get a copy of this book, or scout around for more of Marko's stuff.
