The second volume of my comic Stranger Two Stranger was reviewed by Justin Giampaoli at the Poopsheet Foundation. Here’s a snippet:
I was pleased to see Hendricks use heavier paper stock for a better designed cover, and a couple of pull quotes on the back, upping his game with nice small moves. It’s refreshing to see someone just get it, with discernible actions toward improvement…some of these are so odd that you just can’t make this stuff up. For some reason, I enjoyed the post about someone wanting another party to come and kill a spider for them at 1am. Not only does the post get an actual reply, but it’s an alternative solution that seems to shake up the worldview of the original poster. Grade A.If interested in purchasing either Volume 1 or Volume 2 visit strangertwostranger.tumblr.com.
Another awesome review!

The first volume of my comic Stranger Two Stranger was reviewed by Justin Giampaoli at the Poopsheet Foundation. Here’s a snippet:
This isn’t autobiographical, more biographical I suppose, but like good autobio comics, the observations catalogued here provide commentary about daily life, which illuminates the universal human condition, ideally causing us to consider our own actions in introspective fashion. Stranger Two Stranger is well-drawn, and an old-school, made-it-at-Kinko’s, honest-to-goodness, hand-stapled, DIY mini-comic. It’s a fun first effort that succeeds.

Stranger Two Stranger Volume 2 is out now!!! Another great review from The Optical Sloth. Here is a snippet of the review:
I’m so happy that Robert decided to keep going with this. Sure, it’s a simple concept: illustrating the best/oddest Craigslist personal ads, which he started doing after being inspired by the “I Saw You…” anthology edited by Julia Wertz (which I’ve been meaning to review for ages now). Still, the guy has the judgement needed to pick out some of the best ads, which goes a long way in a book like this.Read the full review.
If you would like to purchase Stranger Two Stranger, I will include a special gift with all orders!
My first ever comic, Stranger Two Stranger Volume 1 just got an awesome review from Opitical Sloth.
Here is a snippet of the review:
R. also mentioned in his intro that he was very late getting into this small press comics thing, as he’s in his late 30′s at the moment. Kudos to him/her and the more the merrier. Hell, a good chunk of the behemoths of this small press world put out their best work after the passed 40 anyway, so there’s theoretically plenty of time for improvement. It’s a pretty damned solid first issue either way, but here’s hoping the guy keeps going with this.
