Shelfdust Presents: The Fifty Best #1 Issues


Oct 10, 2022

This week we turn to the comic which came in at 47th in our list: Daytripper #1 by Fábio Moon, Gabriel Bá, Dave Stewart and Sean Konot.

Daytripper is a complicated series as a whole, with each issue following a different path which lead character Bras de Oliva Domingos could take through life – and how each path will eventually lead to a different ending for him. It’s a heady series, and the first issue tells a taut and high-pressure story of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. It’s a fantastic first issue, but there’s a hell of a lot to say about it. Thank goodness for writer and editor Alex Lu, then, who joins us this week to say it all!
