This is a pretty mixed bag of stories that tended to be a bit more playful than Jason's normal style. I like playful on him, it looks good and he should write like that more often.

Jason takes more risks in this one, but most of them pay off

Another short story collection, this time featuring a ton of stories about 20 pages or shorter. A real good mix of Jason’s comedy, abstract and serious stories. Solid collection.

I honestly have no idea if I enjoyed this? I couldn't put it down... but I have no idea what happened in any of the stories

A bit different than some of his usual stuff. I love how sketchy and inconclusive most stories are here. Maybe not his strongest work but Jason is one of the all time best for me. Has that spark, you know?

Overall it was ok. More like 2.5 stars.
Stories or pictures includes Magritte, Godot, Reptilians, Nostradamus, Castro, Kennedy and Monroe... I couldn't realize the hitman was Frida Kahlo but this story reminded me Nirvana's song (so at the end I couldn't understand tf point). (There are other people and elements I'm not familiar with.) This is what I liked most about the book. The idea of telling in your own POV of pop culture, conspiracy theories is good, but still something is missing, stories was hard to fathom. They are too short to judge, maybe, but this shortness is the reason of not making sense.

Soy una gran fan del trabajo de Jason. Todos sus cómics hasta ahora resultan ser una clase de cómo manejar los silencios en el cómic, usar saltos temporales como si nada, hacer expresivas situaciones donde los personajes tienen los mismos gestos (o se parecen mucho) y lograr que situaciones absurdas usando personajes reales (en este caso Chet Baker o el Santo) sean emotivas.
