Oni Press shares yet another beautiful graphic novel experience. Smoove City is absolutely gorgeous, complete with an engaging narrative and a fluid style all its own. So glad I had the chance to read it!

Thanks NetGalley and ONI Press, was a sweet trip down memory lane into the 90's. It's a little goofy, the art style is very 90's American TV and fashion and the story is an easy fit like a well worn, comfortable well loved jacket. I enjoyed inhaling Archie and Betty and Veronica comics as a child. This was reminiscent of that, but better, I was surprised how 'into, the story I got after a while. Fun, straightforward yet engaging read. Beautiful drawings,

This is a wonderfully-written graphic novel about individuality, drive, and the many pitfalls of the music industry. The artwork is delightfully bright, original, and sure to catch the eye of young adult readers, Keil uses the medium to highlight the struggles of being young, talented, and ambitious in a world that jumps at the opportunity to exploit new artists. However, while some of the themes are heavier than they first appear, readers will love the vibrant personalities, relationships, and hilarious rapport between the characters. An exuberant addition to any young adult collection.

A fun comic about a '90s new jack swing boyband trying to make it in the music industry. The art is very '90s - think 7 Up's Fido Dido but with eyepopping colours. The story has fun with music industry clichés, and although it doesn't do anything special, it is nicely filled with jokes.

3.5 stars

This book feels like summer. The colors, the story, the style; it's a great time and a smooth read. The story is less about individual characters and more about a vibe. It's trying to impart a mood and a feeling the '90s. Like an Archie comic, you'll probably identify with one character more than the others but don't expect deep character development. That''s totally fine because it is also not the intention of this comic. Like other reviewers have said, there are a few spots where the story drags a little but it's not a deal breaker by any means. It's a fun, cool story that invokes that imparts some of the best feeling of the 90s. It's a great little laid back read.
