Dear Mark Crilley.
I want to say that I’ve been a fan of your work for years. I believe I have followed you since the How To Draw Manga Eyes vídeo. I wanted to say that I think this book is amazing. No other artist can get me to read books like this one. I usually read Marvel & Dc comics. The pleasure of reading a story where the protagonist isn’t shooting lasers out their eyes is pretty new. Like, the drawing lesson kinda new.
I liked the art style. It felt different from Brody’s ghost, but a good different.
The story is so well built. Whenever you can get the audience to feel emotions that’s a testament to how good a story is and I gotta tell ya, Megan had me crawling up a wall! When she did what she did... I was livid.
I said so many bad things about her. But by the end, after thinking about it, I got it.
These are two people who may be attached by friendship but they also have two different backgrounds. One had to face things the other didn’t. So obviously they would have some different world views.
Anyway, I don’t want to make this longer than it had to be. I wanted to say I enjoyed this book and I will recommend it to my bookworm friends.
Thank you for a great story, and I can’t wait for the next one.
P.s.
I have to say it. The Marvel comicbook fan in me wants to tell you that I feel like there was a little miss opportunity when the girls went to Hell’s Kitchen. You could have placed a little nod to the superhero Daredevil in there. (He’s from Hell’s Kitchen.) 🤣

I've been watching Mark Crilley's videos and buying most of his books almost since he started his channel. Honestly, this is without a doubt his best story, which I don't say to take away from either Miki Falls, or Brody's Ghost, but this simply is a more true to life story, and a cut above.
Without getting into spoilers, as an artist myself, I found this incredibly engaging. As an artist with friends with vastly different philosophical outlooks, I found it PARTICULARLY engaging. What's more, there are small references to things in artistic culture that might go over many non-artists heads, and some interesting foreshadowing of one of these plot details early on within the art. If I had to complain about one thing is that the final act felt very short. Again, avoiding spoilers, but I just feel like a bit of breathing room between the 2nd and 3rd sections would have been good, but it's solid anyway.
The art is particularly interesting. I've seen Mark's art from the Miki Falls era, through Brody's Ghost, and now to this, and I think that this is also truly his best. All of them have had his particular love of tones and fine details, but this one by virtue of it's truly unique color format adds a whole other layer of dimension.
Again, the only 'flaw' is that it was shorter than I'd have liked, but then that's also allowed me to read it cover-to-cover in single sittings both times I've read through it. I loved this Graphic Novel, and I really cannot wait to see his next one. In the meantime, I'll keep watching his videos!
