Like Ant Colony and First Year Healthy, Big Kids is a testimony to the harshness and beauty of being alive. Eerie and perfectly paced, DeForge's Big Kids muses on the complicated, and often contradictory, feelings people struggle with during adolescence, the choices we make to fit in, and the ways we survive times of change. And slowly, the boy begins to change, too. Instead, he hangs out with April and her friends, a bunch of highly evolved big kids who spend their days at the campus swimming pool. The boy's own interests quickly fade away: he stops engaging in casual sex, taking drugs, and testing the limits of socially acceptable (and legal) behavior. She's college student, mysterious and cool, and she quickly takes a shine to the boy. When the boy's uncle, a police officer, gets kicked out of the family's basement apartment and transferred to the countryside, April moves in. It follows a troubled teenage boy through the transformative years of high school as he redefines his friends, his interests, and his life path. simultaneously Michael DeForge's most straightforward narrative and his most complex work to date. The debut graphic novel from a dazzling newcomer with a singular, idiosyncratic style.
