Living Life submitted by jaegerla on April 12, 2011, 11:22am This is a little bit heartbreaking, a little bit inspiring, and has some heart-stopping pictures. Like: http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Daytripper7-130x200.jpg

All the paths a life could take submitted by wampishing on June 25, 2013, 9:53am A beautiful read, both in terms of visuals and narrative, Daytripper has a unique story structure: in every chapter, as it were, the protagonist dies. Each death, presented as only one of many possible ends to teh life of Bras de Oliva Domingos, gives insight into how the events in our lives, the near misses and the overcome heartbreaks, shape us as people. It's haunting and uplifting all at once, and as enjoyable as it is impressive.

Life is Beautiful submitted by rmhawkins on July 24, 2013, 5:48am "Daytripper" is a simply stunning work of art. It is not simply one of the best comics I have read, but one of the most profound books I have read in a long time. Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba bring the medium to new heights of illustration, color, and, most importantly, content and meaning. I would highly recommend reading "Daytripper."

confusing at first submitted by camelsamba on June 22, 2015, 3:10pm It's quite an interesting concept, once you push through the confusion of the first few chapters. Lovely artwork. Interesting treatise on life and death.

Unique Concept submitted by sushai on July 28, 2017, 9:28pm Both moving and fascinating, I love the concept of how one's death can frame the life that came before.

So good! submitted by fernandofitch on January 18, 2022, 7:33pm I was blown away by how profound and moving this graphic novel is. I've always known that graphic novels can be more than superhero stories, but I didn't expect a literary masterpiece. So good.
