Ah, who doesn't love a good conspiracy theory?
If you're in the ranks, then this comic is built for you.
Nobody Is In Control is a stream-of-consciousness encounter in the woods between (and in the minds of) two men - a mysterious man carrying a briefcase and a former radio talk show host who has retired and lives like a hermit in the middle of nowhere.
When he encounters the mysterious man on his property, he offers help - but ends up in an extended conversation that covers a wide range of strange theories and possible explanations for them.
It's all a bit odd and the sense of reality jumps around a lot - but this series certainly gives you a lot to chew on.
The art is rough around the edges but an excellent match for the story, and there are quite a few clever artistic flourishes there.
The real star of the series is the writing, and the growing sense of dread that all is not as it should be.
If you're willing to travel to this dark place, you'll be rewarded with lots of food for thought.
Grade: B
