Evan Harrison Cass put Things Change on his Best Comics of 2008 list. Obviously he is a man of great taste. Of the comic he says:
It’s been said that poetry is “the rhythmical creation of beauty in words” (Poe). THINGS CHANGE is comix-poetry. From Panel to Page to Chapter, from Figures to Balloons to Colors, it is ‘rhythmic creation of beauty in comix.’ The resultant story is surreal, strange and reflective; Badman’s comix poems stay with you long after you read them. With Book Three recently wrapped and Book Four just starting, THINGS CHANGE is a modern-day Art-House Comix classic.
