by: Alex Robinson
by: Alex Robinson

July 03, 2001
strange the old cliche that says we hate those characteristics in others that are most like ourselves. i've never found this so true as i did in this brilliant graphic novel. every character in this story is a pathetic & sympathetic one. you can only sympathise with one when you "walk a mile in their shoes"; if you read this story you will walk many a mile carrying many characters in your arms.
the more complex robinson becomes,the more vague become humans & our ability to cast moral judgements on them.

.Asp 3.0 Programmer's Reference

by: Danan Denault, Brianean Francis, Matthewco Gibbs, Marco Gregorini, Alex Homer, Craig McQueen, Simon Robinson, John Schenken, Kevin Williams, Dan Denault

April 01, 2000
Not only is it below average in cost, it is by far the best ASP book I have ever seen. Every topic has a VBScript and JScript example. It is much more than a reference manual. This is the way EVERY computer language book should be written.

.BOP!

by: Alex Robinson
by: Alex Robinson

December 02, 2003
Alex Robinson's massive graphic novel _Box Office Poison_ is one of my favorite graphic novels. The characters within its black and white pags breathe realism. In this day and age of spandex clad super heros and scantily clad heroines, _BOP_ offers the reader a breath of fresh air as he or she follows the lives of the disgruntled book store employee Sherman and the want to be comic book artist Ed and the vast assortment of their friends and enemies. This slim vol titled _BOP!: More Box Office Poison_ is a collection of stories that were not included in the 600+ page Top Shelf Collection and a few recent stories concerning the characters such as Mr. Robinson's 24 hour comic depicting Caprice and her boyfriend Kevin. For the most part this book fleshes out ... Read More:
