The Last Delivery is a graphic novel about an unnamed delivery man and his hellish quest to deliver a package in a sprawling, maze-like mansion. Very dark and Kafkaesque. Any fan of adult graphic novels is sure to enjoy this book.

The Last Deliver by Evan Dahm is a unique, somewhat whimsical, somewhat cynical read. I appreciated the artwork and the skill in sequential storytelling. The main character is an easy every-man sort that the reader can follow along with. Overall a worthwhile read.

The Last Delivery is a short, fast-paced fantasy read that will definitely keep thou on thou'st toes. Poor little guy. The delivery man is doing everything in his power to deliver his parcel in this dark, whimsical maze of a book. He is continuously stymied in his efforts, but his dedication is unwavering. I thoroughly enjoyed this graphic novel. The art and coloring style are unique and lend themselves to the eerie, disorienting feeling mirrored in the narrative. This graphic novel encapsulates a mood that is unsettling but difficult to articulate. Unlike anything I have read before, it would be well suited to those who enjoyed Mage and the Endless Unknown by S.J. Miller or Over the Garden Wall. Darker graphic novels like these can be difficult to stick the ending, but (mild spoilers) I enjoyed that the end has a sense of metaphor to it - I took it as a critique of capitalist consumption, but it could be taken several ways. Also, I love Spatulette.

Beautiful art, a relatable everyperson main character. a nihilistic setting and a theme that on first read seems cynical as heck.

I LOVED this. It reminded me of the Dark Crystal but mixed with a bit with Dr. Seuss. I felt bad for that the main character had to go through this story, yet I could not stop looking at his journey.
