Jamie S. Rich is the Editor in Chief for Oni Press consistently one of the best publishers in the comic book market. I had the pleasure of meeting Jamie at Bristol Comic Con a couple of months and he is a really nice and genuinely funny guy. Oni have just republished his first and indeed only novel to date with added illustrations from some of Oni’s and indeed the industries talent.
Cut My Hair is a coming of age tale (aren’t they all!). Mason is a 19 year old boy growing up in his own little world of music and girls. Jamie’s love for music shines throughout the entire book, unfortunately most of the references are lost on me, the music is from before my time. It even had to be pointed out to me that the title of the book is from a Who song. All in all a very enjoyable read slightly let down by the uneven ending, but it works.
