Juvenelia of a sort ... Tomine's earlier work. Nice to see how his visual style has evolved. ( )

Sleepwalk is like finding an old friend, who you miss quite a lot, passed out on your stoop. And when you rouse them, invite them in, they've got stories to tell that will break your goddamn heart.

Interesting but frustrating as the stories are too unfinished. ( )

Incredible. Some of these stories are so fucked up they make my stomach hurt. ( )
