Slave Labor publishes #2

Two kids steal some bikes and go for a ride in the country to see their friend. But this is not the whole of our tale in this innovative, emotional, thoughtful book by Sonny Liew. There’s a marvelous piece of heartbreak told in the format of the Sunday funnies. Sharp, sketchy, and sloppy as the detailed city in which it unfolds, Malinky Robot isn’t quite like any other book. Its lasting emotional impression is like the final pages of the book itself, in which rain sprinkles on the end of a fine day with friends, a bit of quiet and solitude amidst a whirl of activity.
