I don’t need to say it again, do I? Seriously… American Vampire is a very good series. One of the best. This issue is just another example of why this comic dominates month in, month out. Hit the link below to be elucidated further: American Vampire #16 review at CBR by Ryan K Lindsay I [...]

This is a fun comic and I almost feel like I want to force myself to write about it more from time to time so more people give it a go. Catch up on it in trades, people, it’s fun. But first, click the link below to read: Incorruptible #19 review at CBR by Ryan [...]

It is taking me some serious time but I’m catching up on The Wire – one episode at a time. I flew through the first season over 3 years ago and it’s taking me longer than your average bear. Guess that’s what happens when you spend most of your time playing family and writing. Justifying [...]

I recently read the first year or so Warren Ellis’ run on Astonishing X-Men. I liked it a fair bit more than I thought I would and found that the presence of death was so present I had to write about it. Death is on and behind every page and to find out more you [...]

BOOM! Studios is launching a new kids line called kaboom! Its first title, as far as I know, is Snarked. It’s a blatant kids’ comic by the now legendary Roger Langridge. This #0 is only $1 and it includes all sorts of fun material. It’s like the ultimate kids toy, and for only a buck. [...]

Blue Water aren’t known for being a great comic publisher. They put out bio comics about Lady Gaga and a soon to be done Charlie Sheen book. I only read this one because it’s about The King. It steals most of its lines from King’s own ‘On Writing’ and still can’t be enjoyable even though [...]

This comic isn’t good. When I can read a comic and tell you how it could have been good then you are in trouble. I also just saw the #0 issue, which was a dollar, ~36k, and those are big numbers in today’s market. What a shame then that the #0 wasn’t great and this [...]

It was my choice of character this week and I went with Dashiell Bad Horse from the Vertigo title ‘Scalped’ by Jason Aaron and R.M. Guera. I chose that character because he’s so insanely detailed and flawed and real. I love reading him so I wanted to try writing him. It was hard to try [...]

Scalped is an awesome comic. There’s very little doubt about it and this is just another issue to put onto the proof pile. Great grimy stuff, get into it. Click the link below to read: Scalped #49 review at CBR by Ryan K Lindsay I gave it 4.5 stars because, “The shootout sequence that takes [...]
