The 40 Years of Comics Project - Day 1720: The Ice Hole
An awesome little comic I picked up from the creator at the always great Panel One festival in Calgary. I'd also picked up the first issue of Mr. Rosia's Daughters of Knights series prior to this, and I was hoping for a second issue. But since that wasn't available, I grabbed this.
This comic, pun intended, chills me. It reads like a Japanese horror story set in the far reaches of Canada, and every time I read it, it leaves me wanting more, and overwhelmed with questions. Where, exactly, does the story begin? What is in the hole? How is time working in this story? It really seems to be a loop, but that brings us to the idea that the events of the story are not only self-perpetuating, but infinite.
It's a confusing, unnerving, entirely excellent story. If you're in Calgary and can track a copy down, I highly recommend it.
