If Two Brothers is anything like Gabriel Ba and Fabio Moon’s Daytripper then it will be an outstanding read and work of art. Daytripper is one that I think is a most have of graphic novel collections and even though I haven’t seen it I strongly suggest that you take a look at it. These are not your action adventure yarns by any means Daytripper was a well thought out drama, which it sounds like Two Brothers will be as well. It is slated for an October release from Dark Horse.
