Description

This is the good life. With hard work comes the corresponding spoils. That’s the theory, anyway. But what if all the fast cars and beautiful company in the world still leave you wanting? When push comes to shove, would you even know what to look for? The eighth installment of Troy Chin’s ongoing autobiographical comic book series is now available from Math Paper Press. Troy Chin is a Singapore-born comic book maker whose works include the four-panel slice of life comic strip Loti, the music industry satire Bricks in the Wall, and the online interactive comic Forgetting.
