I first saw animations from Tales of Mere Existence only two weeks ago, so I was very surprised when a friend handed me Sunny Side Down, a collection of Tales. This 200 page comic series was a breeze to read through- I did it in one sitting, laughing every now and then at the silly protagonist and his thoughts on life past and present. I was expecting more giggles than were expelled from my giggling gland (sorry, I'm usually weary of alliteration), but I enjoyed the light read with depressing undertones. I wouldn't recommend buying it, but definitely check out some of the online animations (I've linked two favorites below). If you got a second in the bookstore, go ahead and flip through. It's a favorite of the friend who owns it. It is my kind of humor, but I can't tell if it's just delivered in the wrong way or if there is just too much stuff like it out there. It could even be that I saw the animations first, and I like how the narrator delivers the narratives in gloom and doom manner. Maybe I was reading it with the wrong voice in my head. Does anybody else make voices for when they're reading?
