SPACEMAN BLUES, by Brian Francis Slattery

(originally posted on October 24, 2007)

The first page told me it was awesome. The next page kept up the awesomeness. And the ensuing 200-odd pages is a magical, splendid cornucopia of apocalyptic New York, wild characters, crazy adventures and bright color that's quite unlike anything I've read in a long while. I felt quite giddy after finishing this and suspect many others will too.
