Summary: a slice of life with worms
Comment: This is an autobiographical comic by Ed Brubaker who writes for such comics as Batman and the revamped catwoman. After reading Alex Robinson's comic Box Office Poison I wanted to read other comics that were in the slice of life vein. This book was recommended to me. I did not know until after purchasing it that it was an autobiographical comic which game the book an added punch. It was an extraordinary but sad read. The characters are both likeable and dislikeable at the same time, and because they are based on actual people the realism is top notch. so it back for a ride in booze, drugs, bad sex, and used book stores.
Rating: 3
Summary: Enjoyable story
Comment: I found this comic to be throughly enjoyable and definetly worth my time and money but not amazing. It didnt change my life or way of thinking. Reviewers at amazon.com through around 5s like it's nothing. a 5 has to blow you away. and this book didnt do that for me. It is a collection of various tales from our narrator ed brubaker about occurances in his life. It's amusing and even a bit thought porvoking. Pick it up you won't be disapointed. definetly above average. technically it deserves a 3 and a half but its closer to a three than a four. Recommended!

Summary: Hey!! Who's throwing Coke!??!?!?!
Comment: I was expecting another slice-of-life Autobiographical comic mixing the mundane with the humorous. The opening story delivers that, and I was laughing myself sick.....then the REAL story began....
A Complete Lowlife is author Ed Brubaker's true story of petty crime, drug addiction, murder and redemption. The book gets darker and darker with each story, and there were parts that just broke my heart.Since this is a true story, things don't get wrapped up neatly; the main character doesn't always know the right thing to say, or when to say it. He doesn't always do the right thing.
Like you and me.
Anyone who hasn't always been proud of things they've done or said will be able to identify. Brubaker is now a successful comic book writer, currently doing a wonderful job on DC's Batman. All the more impressive considering what he's been through. There's just no way you won't be touched in some way by this book. Give it a try.
