The premise here is that Andy Wicks, a truly average 40-something software engineer, goes to the hypnotist to quit smoking. Only when they put him under he wakes up back in 1985 just before he has his first cigarette. In his previous trip thought high school he lacked confidence and was pretty much a forgettable geek. This time though he has the confidence and wisdom of a 40-year-old man. Using this he gets a date and chooses not to smoke thereby quitting in the present. Unfortunately, I just told the entire story in three sentences and you didn’t miss anything in the plot. What you did miss is Robinson’s fantastic artwork. The level of detail in each cell is very impressive. But, the story telling is more or less unimpressive. In the end Alex Robinson is a fantastic artist that either needs to draw for someone else or grow as a storyteller. Regardless, I’ll check out his next effort.
