These are:Ĥ Quote one of his sayings that stays with meĥ Has his work changed my work and if so, how?Ħ Give an example of where he has made a differenceħ Does his work have relevance outside the USA?Ĩ In what ways if any do I think he is mistaken?ĩ Which of his publications do I most recommend? The appraisers mostly respond to ten suggested enquiries. Finally, Michael Pollan himself selects some outstanding current books. We also add an illuminating post on Marion Nestle‟s own website from „Farmer Jane‟. His work points all those concerned with public health and with nutrition in new and rich directions, and also is a reminder of the knowledge and wisdom that has already been accumulated.As last month, the appraisals below are in the chronological order of when the contributor first encountered Michael Pollan: Simon Schama, Todd Dawson, Alice Waters, Christopher Gardner, Boyd Swinburn, and two younger people committed to public health and to nutrition, Francine Lima and our very own Isabela Sattamini. It is mostly in what and who he stands for. His importance, at first centred in the USA, is not just in himself and his own writing and testimony. The way she functions with Clint inevitably brings out the best in both Hawkeyes and leaves you wanting more of these characters, which is one of the highest compliments I can give.Yes, Michael Pollan this month again, for a second time. She’s funny, independent, and determined to help everyone around her. And the way he writes Kate is chef’s kiss good. Clint’s desire and need to just do the right thing, despite his tendency to screw things up, clearly comes through on the page. And last but not least, Matt Fraction’s writing is also up to the task here, combining humor and heart to create a winning story. Hollingsworth’s muted colors do wonders for the books laid back vibe and his liberal use of purple really pops. Wu’s Kate-centric issues are just a really fun, breezy read. Anne Wu and Javier Pulido bring their unique styles to play here as well in issues that really play to each artists strengths. Francavilla puts his trademark 70s aesthetic to work for a couple of sharp looking issues. Aja uses visual cues and expressive layouts to create an experience that only exists in comics. Issue #11 deserved every bit of its Eisner for its Pizza Dog centered story.

Issue #3 might be the best of the entire series, with a great setup and callback revolving around a boomerang arrow. Every issue drawn by Aja is a visual treat. The new Hawkeye show put me in a mood to reread this series and hot damn is it still so much fun.
