Brian O'Malley

Canadian cartoonist best known as the creator of the Scott Pilgrim series and the author of Lost at Sea (published as Alla Deriva in some editions).

Creator of the Scott Pilgrim graphic novels; Lost at Sea is an earlier, coming-of-age work. Style often blends humor, tenderness, and nostalgia.

A wholehearted five-star appreciation of Brian O'Malley’s Lost at Sea (Alla Deriva). The review frames the book as an on-the-road, coming-of-age story full of tenderness, absurd episodes, and strong nostalgia. Not called a masterpiece, but praised for the emotions it provokes and its yearning to 'stay young forever.'
