REVIEW: Ice Cream Man No.27
“Ice Cream Man” is back with a tale that explores the allegory of what is truly a bottom-feeder as well as giving examples at both the beginning and the end of the tale of “Morphometasis” that the moral and ethic driven-man is truly a creature despised even by the lowliest of insects.
Morality isn’t the only concept under Prinze’s lens as he ends up writing a tale that closely observes mortality and the lack of value paid to it in a world where all creatures tend to want to pay attention only to maximizing the benefits of their lives, no matter if their skeletal system is inside their bodies or used as an outer shell. Prinze once again pushes the boundaries of graphic storytelling and Marazzo once again uses his signature style in a vein as gritty as Miller and as Italian as Manara to deliver the readers the story of Greg which serves as a modern parable for what upinishands would know as the reincarnation cycle that Journey sung about on 8-track compilations.
From the base of U.S. indoctrination schools, children were told about the Very Hungry Catapillar, in adulthood those very same children should pick up “Morphometasis” to learn that change is the greatest magic trick pulled of all time.
Score: 5/5
