A recent post in Comics Alliance provided a great and thorough look at Shia LaBeouf‘s self-pubbed comics, noting that the Transformers star is, “Better known as an actor, the son of Indiana Jones, and a renowned scholar in the language of Cybertronian.”
The review, by Matt D. Wilson, notes that, “They are… an experience to read. If I didn’t know any better, I might say they’re secret messages sent from space robots to warn us of impending armageddon.”
Wilson comes to the conclusion that, he’d be lying if he said that “LaBeouf’s comics–if you can call picture books consisting entirely of splash pages and only the occasional word balloon comics — are any good.”
Wilson goes on to say that he’s “not going to fault the guy for trying. By virtue of his celebrity, LaBeouf’s self-published attempts at comics have gotten more attention than they probably should (I know I would have been better off not reading them), but he’s done what anyone with a hankering to make comics should do: Make some comics.”
Well said!
