Comic failure
A collection of comics inspired by dreamy Belle & Sebastian shows young artists with talent to burn. Too bad they can't tell a story.
By Douglas Wolk [2006-03-07]

  • The Hipster Problem

    While I adore Belle and Sebastion, I can't imagine why I need a comic visualization of stories they've already created in my head. It's a byproduct of Rick Moody and Nick Hornby and the Mcsweeney's gang who secetly clamor to be rock stars, which explains their overinfatuation with the effects of pop music on their writing. Now artists are climbing onto this shaky bandwagon overloaded with hommage. peace.
