A review by conchfritters
Dead Stars by Bruce Wagner

3.0

equal parts brilliance and bullshit, this reminded me how much i like bruce wagner. he's a smart guy and capable of writing something astonishingly profound and beautiful, but this is poo water. i wanted to love this and i could have, i would have, i was willing to overlook all that meth-addled hummingbird shit because it was funny at first, but i am so disappointed by his treatment of Jacquie and Jerrilyn. what the fuck, man? i can only conclude he wanted to punish his characters for their wretchedness by giving them such shoddy treatment or maybe he just tired himself out. regardless, we all deserved better! except you, bruce wagner! you deserved all those crappy reviews!

p.s.; i am totally willing to give you another chance. don't fuck it up.
