I've trumpeted love for the best wrestling comic ever Headlocked before on this here Vundablog and I intend to trumpet it some more with a formal review of the Headlocked collected edition A single Step. The first image of the story is the drip of blood into a puddle of blood, and the narrator asking if we've ever had a dream. Headlocked follows the life and career of Mike Hartmann a college dropout turned aspiring wrestler. Mike Hartmann is a former theater major so Mike Hartmann looks at wrestling from a dramatic perspective. He illuminates the subtleties of the performance known as wrestling. The book is very poetic in the way that it describes the story of a wrestling show and its performers. Mike Hartmann gets so enthralled from watching a live wrestling show he changes the course of his life and pursues his dream. In the collection we don't se much of Mike actually wrestling. It is as the title says "A Single Step" in his career, from leaving school ...

Mike Hartmann has a dream of being a pro-wrestler. Who's Mike Hartmann? Mike Hartmann is the star of the greatest wrestling comic ever. Headlocked. I picked up Headlocked: A Single Step, and  absolutely loved it. I've always liked wrestling and recently I've been developing a love for it. This book is going to keep that fire of love burning bright, from now or until the creator Mike Kingston straps on his own tights and joins a Chikara League. Watch the Video, and prepare for me to talk about this adnauseum.for the next 40 or so days. Let's Go Mike! I contributed . You can too, right now.
