"Dash Shaw's BodyWorld

is a twisted masterpiece of storytelling built from stunning visuals and panel-manipulation, rendered with much care by the young artist whose first full-length graphic novel, Bottomless Belly Button (from Fantagraphics), was a black-and-white foreshadowing of what he's capable of in full color and unbridled weirdness."




That's from my Austin Chronicle review of the book, written for a general audience but not without a faint stain of insight.
