Reddy 4 Danger

This is an odd, short minicomic zine. I fear the use of corrugated cardboard for the cover is the most interesting aspect. At 16 black-and-white pages, the $5 price-tag seems exceptionally high, especially when you consider that a third of that is dedicated to a pixely, slow-motion comic of feet on a swing, a plane in the air and a skydiver. The rest of the zine is comprised of a wordless comic involving a girl jumping into a pile of leaves and encountering a sort of giant rabbit/dinosaur hybrid. It’s never clear what the goal is with these comics.

The artwork of the second story “Fall” would lead you to expect a humour comic, yet the story is too confusingly-told for us to know what exactly we should be laughing at. Suffice it to say, the artwork is poor and the writing is worse. (Harley R. Pageot)
