Writing:  This is a series of strips that is basically about the interplay between a fairly newly married husband and wife. I thought this collection of strips was well done and the humor about what goes on between a married couple and the things they need to adjust to is dead on. Wes does a good job of fleshing out the characters as well even though he's doing it in three and four caption vignettes.

Artwork: Worked well for the strips. It had a Peanuts feel to it without all the kids running about.

Overall:  4 stars. A quick fun read. This was a very original funny series of comic strips.

Writing:  For a relatively simplistic comic (it's a compilation of 3/4 panel strips), I really liked how this one was pulled off.  The writing was snappy, down to earth, and genuinely funny. 

Artwork:  It was definitely a Sunday paper comic's page style at work here, but it suited the material and was pretty snappy to boot.

Overall: 4 stars.  If someone as into psychosis in comic form as myself can get into this one, it's got something.  I'd highly recommend this book.

Alex Haas


Writing: This book is a collection of three & four panel strips, so there is not an overarching story being told.  There are some themes and events that span multiple strips, like their first date.  There were a few strips that had me laughing out loud.  It verges on being a little saccharine at times, or maybe I have just been married longer than Wes and therefore I am a little more cynical.

Artwork: Simple but effective.

Overall: 4 stars. This is a fun, lighthearted read.

Writing: I’ve never been much of a comic strip guy,  so when I started reading “You’ll Have That” I thought I might be in for a long reading experience. I really wasn’t getting into the book throughout the early part of the book, but about a third of the way through something really started clicking for me. I think what really helped was when Mr. Molebash started carrying over themes from one strip to another.  This helped the book have less of a random feel.

Artwork: Nothing special, but it certainly fits the type of story.

Overall: 4 stars. It is a really good book. This would really hit home for men who haven’t been married for very long.
