Wow. How in the hell do I even describe this thing? The first trade told the story of a young rich girl on the run from her perverted father. We got all sorts of nice moments with her and her friends as she careened through life with a bullet in her brain. Well volume two of David Lapham's insane series puts all that into doubt.These are Young Liars after all, and Danny Noonan/Danny Duoshade is our narrator, and he's about as unreliable as it gets. The guy lies and is quite possibly insane. I don't know what is really happening in this narrative and what isn't. Is Sadie alive or not? Heck, is the whole gang alive or dead? Was Danny a famous rockstar, DJ, or both? None? I honestly don't know. What I do know is that Lapham never lets up. Even in the character-focused issues where we learn more about CeeCee and Annie X, the main plot lurches onward. It might not make much sense, but hoo boy is it entertaining.
Lapham's pencils capture all the perversion and insanity you could want, and more. You need to experience the perverted home of Sadie's Dad, complete with sad clown servants, for yourself. Honestly, I can't do this book justice; it is that crazy.
Excellent
