Jay Naylor

Our first review!  :O

Original Life - Jay Naylor

Jay Naylor has for a while been one of my favorite authors and artists.  His third work, Original Life, is a mainly humor based comic telling the story of the three children of Fisk Black.

Original Life plays out in a style more similar to that of newspaper strips, though with far superior art and full page comics, with most comics as standalone jokes and occasional more lengthy storylines.

Jay Naylor's work also has political and philosophical undertones which some may not agree with, though they anything but detract from the story.  Each of the childeren represents a certain area of ability, namely science, athletics, and philosophy.

Jay Naylor's work has always, even when lighthearted, been a far more thoughtful and creative comic than most others.  Though the updates are less numerous than many other comics, his is one of the few that I am always sure to catch as soon as it appears.
