Staff Review
Secrets and betrayal are the cornerstone to Estes' book. 'You have to answer for the past... not live by it' is the moral to this story as a hole opens up in the ground and a ghost of someone who the protagonist, William, wronged as a child climbs out. The ghost, not an innocent himself, helps William move beyond his current rut of a life (like the affair he's having with his best friend's fiance), get over his past, and move forward in a more positive direction. Very readable, with simple and stylized linework, Hello, Again is a hopeful and insightful comic.
