And Then I Read: BUG! #4

This series isn’t making a lot of sense to me, but I like it anyway. I feel the influence of Gerard Way this time, as the “plot” grows in absurdity and complexity with the feeling that no one, even the characters, is taking it very seriously. Meanwhile, we have great art by Michael Allred and a bunch of fun characters from Jack Kirby and elsewhere in the DC Universe (Deadman, Kobra) chasing after one McGuffin after another, hopping from one reality to another, and carrying on surreal conversations with enough humor to be entertaining. Fair enough, I’ll go along.
