Booklist Review

The third gathering of Piskor's smash webcomic, which Fantagraphics has also started releasing as a monthly comic book, affords as much amusement and well-researched history as its two predecessors. If Piskor follows his initial plan, this volume of the series is the halfway mark. Homing in on just two years of the early eighties, he spotlights producers Russell Simmons and Rick Rubin and the breakout of break dancing as well as the rise of the Beastie Boys, the Fat Boys, Run DMC, and Whodini. Piskor's art style, somewhere between Jack Kirby and R. Crumb, looks as good as, maybe better than, ever.--Olson, Ray Copyright 2015 Booklist
