Curses

The last chapter that i had to read in Douglas Wolk's Reading Comics was the one on Kevin Huizenga. I held off on it, as i wanted to read Curses in its entirety before i got Wolk's view on his work. A piece had turned up here and there, so i was interested. "28th Street" had me enthralled.

It kinda turned out that i had read everything in this collection already... damn... It's hard to tell how that happened, as i don't get the chance to read these kind of comics unless i order them as books.

Huizenga makes me feel weird, in a good way. His work fits well with other authors that i use as pillars for my reading. I'm catching the Calvino and Borges reference that i missed before, and am now trying to connect what other authors his thinking has been influenced by.

I read Wolk's piece on him as well last night. I'm still digesting.
