I am officially a fan of Yang's now. I enjoy his art style, which feels simple but contains plenty of subtle depth. This story made me laugh out loud plenty of times, and warmed my heart at the same time. Yang has a knack for narration in graphic novels; it is my favorite part. Warren says "it was really weird." Trevor says "it was good." Not exactly review material, but there you go. The ending was wrapped up a bit quickly, but it did not detract from the overall experience.

I laughed! I gasped! I kept reading parts of it out loud to my partner even though she was trying to read Nabokov and it was kind of annoying! I just couldn't help it.

Some adult-like humor may push this very charming little tale into teen territory, which is where Gene Yang usually lives, so that's fine, of course. But the subject matter - an 8 year old boy dealing with his new baby sister and the intergalactic love slugs who hitch a ride to earth through her - makes me want to give it to younger readers. Anyway, love the art as always, love the colors, giggled through the story.

Absolutely hilarious comic about a boy who wants to grow up to be a supervillain and his adorable baby sister who occasionally spits up aliens. I rushed to the library to pick up Yang's other works as soon as I finished reading this.
