If Zap #1 was about Robert Crumb remaking the comic-book narrative to poke fun at our secret fears and fixations, #2 was about pushing those buttons even harder while recasting the comic-book aesthetic. The latter objective is tackled by Griffin and Moscoso, who provide several comics with minimal, nonsensical or nonexistent dialogue. Their stories typically present rotund, often Disney-like cartoon characters experiencing surreal transformations while shapeshifting through—or even becoming a part of—abstract, continually mutating landscapes.--Comixjoint.com
