Nilah Magruder has written and drawn some sort of epic opera in the form of a quirky, funny, and most engaging work of comics. You can imagine all the music coming from this comic, can’t you? I’m sure you can. A lot more stuff goes on, including a much better understanding of who or what Abbie really is, and we come full circle in this first installment with Abbie back on the road with her urn. This leads to Abbie being taken in by Jaime’s family who tend to her wounds although reluctantly since she’s an outsider. Next thing you know, Jaime, a young man, becomes entangled in a fight with Abbie that leads to Abbie and the moa both being stabbed by Jaime. And there’s all this sand swirling around. Her goal is to find a proper place for the ashes. Abbie is carrying a urn with her mother’s remains. We don’t get her story right away but, basically, she’s this young woman with a Wookie-like bird. getting a lot of love and respect.Ībbie is a tough kid. I just say this because I’m excited to see such a quirky and remarkable comic as M.F.K.
Okay, I know, I am digressing down a deep rabbit hole here. Just look at how long it has taken for names like Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko to pretty much enter the mainstream. Does that make sense? There are a lot of, say, niche comics out there but, with each passing year, the audience grows, is more accepting, and remembers specific titles and creators. When people like myself lecture about how it can be so much more than that we are referring to quite a colossal amount of comics that somehow manage to keep a relatively low profile. I guess I mean that it seems that the vast majority are still okay with comics serving a more basic service, simply acting as a simple vehicle for action and entertainment. I know that sounds stupid to say that, especially if you already appreciate comics at a higher level. I swear, more and more of us are collectively going to look at comics as this most stimulating alternative form of entertainment. A small in humble village is the jumping off point for an epic adventure.
