Cons
- The Wasp Factory (weird/disappointing ending imo)
- also I can't mention Miso Soup and Frank the menace without mentioning The Wasp Factory, that features another menace named Frank lol.

Parent context: That's fair, and I'm not happy about reducing what is otherwise a phenomenal book down to one issue. I loved the rest of The Wasp Factory … Reply: I agree that it's an important point of discussion. I hope you're not taking my "one-dimensional" comment as a slight on you.
