Zoetrope: All-Story Summer 2011 Vol. 15 No. 2




This quarters issue includes Oceanic by Stuart Dybek a complex story that was interesting and well written, T.A.R.P. by Emily Ruskovich about a group of kids forming a club in a rural town that dealt with some tough issues, Legendary by May-Lan Tan about a break up that was fantastic and The Fly by George Langelaan that was originally published in a 1957 issue of Playboy and inspired a classic horror franchise beginning in the late 50's and remakes in the 80's. The art this issue is by Beck Hansen and was not quite as weird as I thought it would be. As you can see by the cover a lot is inspired by the 70's and he uses a lot of bold colors. Really interesting art and I enjoyed it a lot without really knowing how to give it an overarching theme unlike the other issues I've read.

As always, every story was excellent and another highly recommended issue.
