Later, there are pages of clean drawings of changes in the grass from one place to the next: more moments of stillness in a story that is essentially about the movement from one place to another and how our selves stay with us no matter where we go. Even though You & A Bike & A Road is made up of moments that seem self-contained as we read them, Davis's work"intentionally or unintentionally"comes together to form an overarching narrative that raises questions about identity as much as it comforts through its depiction of overcoming challenges.

If you're looking for a cute little read, this is it; if you're looking for something with depth that is artistically challenging, keep looking. I enjoyed this work for what it is, which is an entertaining, if forgettable, little story, but I won't be reading it again and again. Your mileage may vary, however.

In spite of the somewhat plodding artwork and a lack of insight into the main character's motivations, there is an enthusiasm for the art of storytelling that shines through and saves the work from tedium. And in spite of its intimidating length, I recommend this work for anyone who has tried to follow their dreams, whether they have failed or succeeded"if they are patient with indie comics that aren't perfect.
