Critics Review
This new hardcover edition of Dave Cooper’s Ripple is yet another comics art masterpiece that belongs on the shelf of greatest graphic novels. It is essentially the story of an artist and his muse – but it explores that thin line between repulsion and attraction and the eroticization of homeliness. Plus, Cooper’s art is uniquely magnificent.– “Largehearted Boy”
