2.0
Nominated for a 2015 Hugo, this graphic novel follows the exploits of some "living challenged" fellows as they try to navigate the world and pick up chicks.
It was okay, obviously a labor of love, and I do like seeing nominees that are off the beaten path, to bring more attention to the guy slaving away in his home trying to get an audience. That said, this just doesn't seem up to par with the rest of the nominees. There is promise and potential, but it doesn't play out well. The art is okay, but the stories are lacking in punch and depth, mostly just a lot of wandering around and "let's see what we stumble over next!"
