Loserville, v.1: And Then You Might Explode.

Jenna and her husband, Deke, live up to the title of this silly but provocative tale. Facing such a panorama of plot oddities as Deke's desire to dress like clowns while they make love, Jenna being diagnosed with a disease that can lead to corporeal explosion, and hallucinations that involve an ice-cream delivery van, we are sucked into a vortex of uneasiness. One of the most successful features of the fast-paced story is its riff on reality talk shows. Cox's art suits both his characters and their shenanigans, foils, and surroundings: the simple, black-and-white cartooning pops with expressive actions and scenery that advance both the plot and the immediate depictions of each predicament. When Ice Cream Larry instructs Jenna on what being "In the Between" entails, Cox strikes a note of brilliance, illustrating in tightly woven words and images how multiple realities can and do coexist. Readers who remember Shannon Wheeler's satirical superhero, Too Much Coffee Man, will appreciate the antics on display here.--Francisca Goldsmith
