Celeste by I.N.J. Culbard
1.0
I didn't expect to love this book, but even so, I found it singularly disappointing.
My experience is partly the result of poor jacket copy - I quickly figured out that Celeste is a trippy dream sequence with pretty art, not a speculative comic about the disappearance of humankind. However, I'd argue this was a structural failing as well. The art is the only success here; I found the three parallel narratives shallow and disappointing.
