Recently arrived at the downthetubes lair is a copy of The Adventures of Kez and Luke by TOXIC Comic sub-editor Luke Paton, a collection of strips published first published online.
The drawings comprise simple stick figures throughout but there’s some nicely observed relationship humour that gives an added and funy dynamic to the whole. The difference between the sexes is rarely so dramatically revealed, as a quick visit to the web site for a taster will hopefully confirm.
Copies of the indie-published print edition can be bought from www.theadventuresofkezandluke.com (click the store link) and cost £2.99 with free p+ p.
