This is story telling on a level that I haven't seen since my childhood when obsessed with Tom and Jerry. Every single panel tells a bit if the story and as sparce as the words are they bring a level of intensity to the action. This is extremely addictive to read as I adore art and ant artist that can bring to life a story is a genius in my book.

As delicious as this comic is to hold and read the real beauty is not the fantastic characters but the scope of the universe that could be created around this story. An absolute joy.

I'm never a fan of an artist that writes his/hers own stories as it usually leads to a mess of ideas but hats of to Derek Kirk Kim for an absolute visual treat filled with so much emotion. Each panel told a truly horrifying story with so few words. This takes me back to the early days of my hero Steve Ditko that turned art into the story instead of just being there to guide the reader. Exceptional more

Dark , gritty, sexy and weird. Add up the ingredients and blanket them in top drawer noir art that sings off the pages and you really get a great intro. This kind of story telling is going to be the death of superhero Comics over the next few years.

I absolutely love this series so far and believe me when I say my eyes are still running from laughing. Outstanding script with the usual awesome art gives this issue the perfect 10.

I loved every lovely panel of this great kids to adults comic. Great history write in a love letter to the past and may I say the art and colouring is a complete joy to tired eyes. For the big kid in you give this a try and the worst thing that can happen is you will have a laugh and leave the issue with a grin.

As fun goes this is a blast. It's like an acid trip version of The Mummy meets Indiana Jones. I must be tripping myself as this is starting to be.e my addictive guilty pleasure and as my normal reading material is extremely dark horror this is a palate cleanser to yesteryear.

I just love Negaduck and the art is wonderful. I'm actually struggling to find anything to complain about and I just love the charm of this. I was lucky as I was brought up solely on cartoons as that was my Saturday morning taken care of. 1960's/ 70's cartoon slap stick over milk and toast. Ah this makes me feel young again.

It's times like these that I get to having a wish that one day I could write like this. The art was perfect and John was John of my younger days. Superb!!!!!

I'm a huge Darkwing Duck fan and this charming little story about greed and corruption with a hint of skullduggery is right up my street. Great character development and gorgeous art with eye popping colours was like watching my first cartoon a 1000 years ago. I loved it.

I'm very privileged in life to get to read and review many stories. Today I have to say the privilege feels awful short on time. To be fair to issue 2 it really took issue 1 and actually down scaled it to a suitable fuel to light a real fire. All the swear words in the world just cover up a hack writer at the bottom of the sludge pile. The saving grace for him was the artist who let's be honest should finish up his felt tip packet soon enough and get back to the day job of being in kindergarten. Sorry this is an insult to most people's intelligence and if you are enjoying it well done you. more

Although I'm now reading this as a graphic novel it still deserves a review in the respect of a single issue. The story moves from place to place and keeps me as a reader totally engaged with John as he moves through his day Dawn till dusk. He never seems to achieve what he set out but as his day unfolds so does the story regardless of the way John deviates. Outstanding writing and sublime art set this on course for one of the very best stories of Hellblazer. more

To anyone currently reading Dead in America do yourself a massive and beg steal or borrow a copy of issue 1 or better still dip your hand in your pocket and buy the trade. This is John like I had always hoped he could be. Dark , funny and a (insert a word) If you think the writing is great then the art is an absolute joy. Outstanding

If you think issue 1 was outstanding then issue 2 puts it in a cage and upscales it by a huge margin. This is outstanding on every single level and is now in a head to head with Hellblazer Dead in America as some of the most intelligent thought provoking comics of this or any other year. If comic companies are to survive with spiralling costs then this is how to do it. Awesome

Companies like Dark Horse really do take a chance on comics like this and when they hit a home run they do so in style. The art and colours oozed off the page and the story felt like I was sitting in front of a 100 inch tv or the latest AAA game and believe me this was up there with the best I've read in a long time. As the age of superheroes is starting to come to an end it leaves room for writers and artists to write something that just leaves the reader wanting more. more

The biggest problem with film adaptations is the weight of either nostalgia or expectancy. I'm lucky as I've never seen or even heard of the original so I come in as a fresh perspective so to speak. Biggest flaw was it read a little to quick and skipped along to the final page just a little ahead of the subplots. The art got the job done of telling the story easily without reading a word and for that I'm grateful as it showed an artist as a genuine fan of the story. All in I have to say nice job by the team and hopefully the next issue or 2 will flesh out those lovely subplots more

Not particularly sure what all the hype is about to be frank. The art was pretty good and fitted the character well and the script rattled along nicely but the dialogue was way to contrived for my taste. I love nostalgia and I get it was set post war during a particularly violent gang time in American history but the tone of the dialogue makes it difficult to really enjoy it.

I do love a good ghost story and this was strangely slow to burn but has a high level of promise. The art for me didn't quite hit levels that I had anticipated as I love his work but I put that down to a script that needed a bit of a nudge along quicker. Not bad for an issue 1 and at least Top Cow get a 10/10 for the subject material

This comic to be honest is worth every single penny for the sumptuous art. Add in a lovely script that unfolds just at the right time and your on to a winner. Mix in crisp dialogue and horror or a cult level and you have probably the most underrated comic on the shelf just now. I could pour over this kind of lovely art all day and find new ways to love it more.

Way back in the year 1968 I read my very first comic. I was lying in bed with tonsillitis at 4 years old and today 56 years later I have probably read the best darn comic of them all. It has something in it for anyone that loves the Supernatural and sprinkle in humor , Dream and a London double decker bus and you have as close to perfection as I have ever read. The portrayal of Swamp Thing is an absolute joy and the art is a thing of wonder. more

As an all age group cartoon romp this makes me nostalgic for the old cartoons of the 1960's with a modern twist that I enjoy reading probably more than I should admit to well!!!! anyone really. Sorry it lost half a mark for a tofu dog..... seriously who the hell eats tofu dogs and admits it

This is seriously my kind of detective book. So many subtle plot lines running through sumptuous art. It kind of reminds me of shows like kojak and Ironside that shaped my young mind all those years ago. Sometimes slow let's you just enjoy the show and this is great.

I'm a huge Bond fan and this is my first ever James bond comic because of Garth Ennis. I wasn't sure before starting this issue if James can ever come across all that well in the comics medium but I really rather enjoyed it and the dynamics of the whole team felt real and written with love to the earlier films. It wasn't perfect and the art was a hit and a miss from panel to panel but good job and I will be back for issue 2 more

This issue takes a strange story of Karma and greed with a cult like mixture and sort of achieves absolutely and utterly less than nothing. Janet is becoming a really bad distraction that seems to pull the story completely of the rails. The weakest story so far an I'm starting to tire a little of the lack of a real plot line.

I love Pam on every level and her inner monologue is a work of genius but the story is so-so and at times meanders like a bad Thelma and Louise script. The first 6 issues were pure horror with live and this is a side salad of something that you will forget about by breakfast time

This kind of loved up issue drives me nuts as it serves no purpose in the overall story of Pam. The way Pam got Harley to trip was it's saving grace as it shows the power of the mind needed to actually understand the Green. I have said this countless times and I will say it once more " please stop fleecing people out of hard earned money with sweet filler stories that would have worked wonderfully well in an 80 page issue with 4 or 5 of these great stories more

I loved this on every single level as it tells the story off the Green as a living being and how Pam fights to be either all monster or half loving human. At her core she is the Green but on the edges she wants to beloved and worshipped y the women that set off the chain in her mind off the woman she once was.

I'm a little confused by this opening of the second arc as if I'm honest I would say it was written by the same writer but scripted as an environmental green issue by a man. I'm aware this goes on in comics but this was slow , predictable and Pams voice was a little to matter of fact drab. Hopefully the pace will pick up a lot as the arc moves on. I also found the art a little by numbers and I'm really disappointed as this had a win all over it. more

To the people who found this episode weak all I can really say is each to there own but for the rest of us that clearly understood the message then this has been a wonderful end to the first 6 issues. I for one loved every single word and panel. It was written by a writer that has talent , a voice and hope in the most perverse way. Great horror and special mention to the art and colour team as it was a joy to the eyes. more
