Summary: Masterful and Sublime.
Review: I picked this book up a couple of years ago at "Jim Hanley's Universe" in NYC. I don't think I've ever re-read a comic as many times as this one. Every choice Wolfgang made with this book was a stroke of genius. The color of the ink, the choice of paper, the restrained act of using mere imagery to represent dialogue, the lovingly rendered line of both character and landscape..... I really just can't say enough. So I contacted Kurt Wolfgang, via e-mail, to convey my profound admiration for his work, and my anxiousness over his pending masterstroke, "Pinokio". He was very gracious. He even offered to send me a slipcover for "Where Hats Go", as soon as they were printed. Unfortunately, I moved...and changed ISP's, so I'm not really sure if he ever got around to finishing the slipcovers. Hmmm... Kurt, if you read this, e-mail me!! I want to complete my "Where Hats Go" shrine!!! Err... anyway, BUY IT. You'll never get as much for $8, in terms of content value in comics, as you will here. This little book is a real treasure.
