A couple of these chapters I would give 3-4 stars, but most would get 1-2. I don't really connect with these most of these stories.
I also don't see the significance of this collection being written and illustrated by twins. The forward touts it's significance by repeating that it's "... fascinating, if you think about it."

I liked some of the artwork and dreaminess of these stories set in Brazil, mostly of younger men and their interest in women, but I never found myself emotionally engaged with the characters, the stories, or particularly exciting in any way. Not like the marvelous [b:Daytripper|8477057|Daytripper|Fábio Moon|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1327876816s/8477057.jpg|13341979].

- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

An anthology of various stories from two brothers doing comics together. They switch off on doing art and scripting, so you get to see two different styles which was fun. I especially enjoyed the one story they both did because you can see the differences in rendering and pacing. I will say some of the stories are a little dated, but their landscapes and graphic work are worth the read

Curious. A bit confusing at times but at least one wonderful story.

Short stories, in comic form. Really good, remind me a little of Sandman? A little bit stylistically, all the dark tones, and some of the whimsicalness

This one gets three start just for the gorgeous art and interesting short-story format. I don't think any of the stories will stick in my head, but I could look at this artwork all day long.
