Just Finished Reading: The Death-Ray

Drawn + Quarterly sure likes giant books. The Death-Ray and Wilson are both ginormous. Anyways, this is another great book by my favorite comic book artist Daniel Clowes. It is about a boy who finds out that he has super strength when he smokes cigarettes. He also has something called the Death-Ray, which makes things completely disappear. What makes this superhero-type character different is that he really has no ambitions. He does beat up bad guys for a while, but he ends up just becoming a miserable person. I thought that The Death-Ray was really fun to read, and the pictures were amazing. Of course, I am probably biased because I believe that Daniel Clowes can do no wrong...
