"Roy the Roach Rides Again"

First off this was great because of the work put into the cover and shape to make it look like a roach, even though it is a little bit grose.
Stylistically the art is great its easy to follow and read. I enjoy this style of comics because it can be followed and the design is friendly and fun. You can tell Claire put a lot of work into this comic on the cutting of all the pages and cover and all the drawings that had to of taken a long time. All the line work on the final spread is well done but not too over powering to where you cant read or see the imagery.
She utilizes a lot of facial expressions to showcase the emotions of the characters and to understand where the story is going and how the people are feeling about the situation. on the second page i like the utilization of the roach to split the panels, also the roach has a different shape speech bubble so you know that it is more of a thought then the roach actually speaking, her interpretation of what the roach would have been thinking.

All and all you can tell that Claire has put a lot of hard work into this comic not only with drawing the book, but the construction of the boo.
