Grixly #10

Title: Grixly
Issue: #10
Date: 2010
Publisher: Grixly
Writer: Nate McDonough
Artist: Nate McDonough

A journey through a year in Andy's life in which a mysterious egg hatches into an even more mysterious bird that talks, smokes cigarettes, and lives in blood in classic Little Shop of Horrors fashion.

Andy also has a series of convenient store encounters and befriends one of the clerks there.

This had a lot more plot than the other issue I reviewed (#18), and I enjoyed the story, which was a nice mix of quirky charm and disturbing creepiness. The pacing was good and McDonough made excellent use of the seasonal imagery.

Rating: 7/10
