I came across this review today, from the A Place to Hang Your Cape site, of the short strip I contributed (with artist Jenika Ioffreda) to AccentUK's Robots anthology.
“Auto Lolita – A beautiful paean of unmitigated sadness and abandonment; masterfully choreographed by Andrew Cheverton and Jenika Ioffreda, within four lonely pages.”
What a lovely review.
This book - as the review states - dates back to 2008, and it’s odd to be reminded of these old stories floating around the world, and the idea that people still read them today. A lot of comics - weekly instalments of ongoing narratives - tend to be, because of that nature, ephemeral, and that’s also true, to an extent, of the independent press - the book comes out, you press it, it sells, you move onto the next one. It’s heartening, every once in a while, to have one of your old stories wander back into your life like this. I liked the character of Dolly in AutoLolita; I wonder whatever happened to her?
