REVIEW: 'Grommets' #1 by Rick Remender, Brian Posehn, Brett Parson, and Moreno Dinisio

GROMMETS #1 Writers: Rick Remender, Brian Posehn Artists: Brett Parson, Moreno Dinisio Letters: Rus Wooton Publisher: Image Comics Release Date: May 29, 2024 Price: $3.99 Score: 4/5 Stars  QUICK REVIEW: 'Grommets' is a delightful trip back to 1984 California when skate culture was at its infancy and new friendships could be formed around it. That's the basic premise and it's lovingly told by Rick Remender and Brian Posehn whose own memories of that time help bring their personal touch to the limited series. Funny and endearing, this coming of age tale of two outsiders brought together by their love of skate boarding is universal but will be of special interest to those who also recognize the names Tony Hawk, Christian Hosoi, and Stacy Peralta.  The colorful cartoony style of Brett Parson and Moreno Dinisio capture perfectly the casual fun vibe of the era in clothes and hairstyles. In the back notes, Remender explains that attention to detail they tried to br...
