Rice Boy

Rice Boy.

It ended yesterday.

Rice Boy is a little odd. It's a story about a journey, or many journeys. That of the main character, Rice Boy, most of all, as he travels through very, very strange lands, in search of the key to ancient prophecy. And it's the story of other journeys, too; that of T.O.E., and Golgo, and others, as they strive for the fulfillment of prophecy; some working to help Rice Boy, some against him.

And it's about what they see along the way on the journey, too; strange and weird visions are par for the course in Rice Boy. Deserted towns, rich countryside, ancient underground cities... it is difficult to describe them any better - and if I did, then, it perhaps would ruin some of the fun for seeing them yourself, in the comic.

Rice Boy is long, and raises a lot of questions along the way, about the characters, about their places they go and what exactly they seek. Having now finished it, I can say that everything that needs to be answered, is, and quite well.

Have a look! It costs you nothing.
