I did a new comic review for Tor.com, this time for the recent stop-motion movie Paranorman. This went up last week, I just haven’t had the chance to post here about it. 

I love animation very much. I grew up on many animated shows and movies, and a well put together animation is pretty much my most favourite thing in the world. But for whatever reason, I couldn’t make it work for me, career-wise. I’m not really that sad, I love comics and I feel like comics are where I’m supposed to be, but a part of me does wonder what it would’ve been like if I’d been able to find my niche in animation…

Anyway. Lives are long and maybe I’ll end up back in animation someday. But for the moment I’ll just enjoy the work of others.

    This sums up my thoughts on ParaNorman pretty well (especially on the supporting cast). And it’s Faith Erin Hicks, so...

    Pretty much the most perfect sum up of why I loved the movie by one of my favorite artists ever.
