REVIEW SCORE 9
The first half of American Splendor #10 features the usual stories about co-workers and snippets of Harvey's life. The second half is mostly about Harvey's third marriage, to a woman named Joyce Brabner, who co-writes the story that introduces her in American Splendor. There are three stories after that introduction, all of which reveal how Joyce affects Harvey's life as he settles into his mid-forties.
