Giant Days #16 started as a webcomic and is a smart, sassy, funny, painfully familiar, growing pains story about university, life and love. And it’s set in Sheffield. That’s right, Sheffield, England. If you thought comic book sit-coms were the sole province of American humorists, think again.

The starting point for Giant Days #16, is Susan, who has three dates in one day, Gothy wants to find a job and Daisy volunteers to take a party of students on an ‘open day’ excursion and finds it a little more than she wants to handle in Giant Days #16.

And out of this base metal plot in Giant Days #16, John Allison spins comedic gold. You’ll feel for the characters, you’ll love Max Sarin’s artwork and you’ll laugh out loud because it’s not only funny, it’s true!  If ‘funny’ comic books aren’t usually your thing, make this one the exception to the rule and prepare to be converted in the pages of Giant Days #16.
