|title=King Lear
|rating=3
|genre=Graphic Novels
|summary=Hound me out of town in a most appropriate manner, but I do not like King Lear. For me, even as a trained actor, the language is too dense and rich, the set-up too archly unfeasible to create the great tragedy it's thought to be. To my mind the acclaim and esteem in which it's held is only mirrored by its own over-long, over-blown blustering.

|title=Minor Miracles
|rating=4.5

Next, a smart Alec defeats the older kids on the stoop with a bit of canny street wisdom.
