Review of Bread and Butter #1 by Liz Mayorga

A short comic-vérité about an artist who moves to San Francisco and enters the pit that is the service industry. People suck, we all know it. If only our artist could just draw rather than falling asleep…

There isn’t anything really new here. Since it’s only twenty pages, I read it quickly, then struggled to remember what happened the next morning. Still, there’s nothing wrong with stories that are well-trod and a little forgettable. Life is well-trod, forgettable stories anyway.

I couldn’t see myself buying issue after issue, eager for the next Bread and Butter to come out, but I think I would pick up, in a few years, a compilation and read through it all then.

Bread and Butter #1 by Liz Mayorga went on sale October 5, 2016.

I received a copy free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
