everyone know about kampung boy but how about mat som? unlike kampung boy mat som focus more on reality of adult life. love the characters and the environment on this graphic novel. lat-sensei is the man! can't agree more. and the love story, it just perfect. *spoiler alert love the ending where mat som just got back from his best friend's wedding with a full baju melayu attire and saw yam somewhere in a crowd (near odeon kl). he went to yam asking where she want to go and yam told him she want to go to some show. mat som agreed to follow her although he didnt know what show yam will go to. then came a panel with some rock kapak peoples screaming and playing guitar. it was a rock show and mat som suddenly hold yam's hand and ran with her to the stage. and the story end with the two of them standing at the back of the stage watching some rock kapak dude singing a song with some powerful lyrics.
Ingin kau jadi New York?! (Want this to be New York?)
Jadi orang asing (Want to be like foreigners?)
Hidup tanpa batasan (Live incentious lives)
Jahil tentang halal haram (Ignorant of right and wrong)
Kononnya itulah KEMAJUAN (Imagine this is PROGRESS)
Tak mahu diri ditertawakan (Don't want to be laughed)
Oh kota, (Oh City)
Inikah yang kau mahu? (If this what you want?)
told you. so powerful rite. gave me some goosebumps there :p
after finished reading mat som the first song i want to hear is the rock show by blink 182.
if lat-sensei thinking on making a remake of 1990's movie version of this graphic novel he should put that song in the ending.
i gave mat som 5 out of 5 and two thumbs up!
