Dead Letters #1
Apr 1, 2014 |
Dead Letters has me hooked, with a twisted take on some classic archetypes that should appeal to all sorts. |

The Mercenary Sea #1
Feb 11, 2014 |
I'm not exaggerating, this series looks to be a lot of fun and given how well-realised our main players are in the first issue – plus the three or four long term arcs that have already been seeded – I'd recommend you jump on board at the beginning. |

In between snippets of the wider insanity, we get a pretty big revelation about Abe too which could well be the crux that moves this arc to its conclusion. |

This issue features exposition that twists the plot arc in a few new ways and also some pleasingly intense fight scenes, closing with a seemingly innocuous conversation that threatens to send everything going that one step closer to absolute insanity. |

Bounce #10
Feb 25, 2014 |
This is the comic equivalent of a Russian Circles or God is An Astronaut song dropping into your otherwise straightforward playlist. Confusing yet engaging and leaving you wanting more. |

Transformers: Redemption #1

The Transformers are all grown up and if, like me youve been away from Cybertron for a while, I would advice that you return for a visit but keep your blaster handy and enough energon in your tank for a quick getaway. |

I really enjoyed this book and I think you will too, but it's not a pivotal issue by any means. |

The Shadow: Year One #7

The combination of effective artwork and an almost surprisingly engaging story (given the relatively well worn tropes on display) makes this a series well worth getting into. I might have to go back and buy the earlier issues myself. |

It's a bit of a jump to get into if you're not already down with the Darkness/Witchblade canon, but this should light any devotees of the series up like a Christmas tree. |

Six pages of measured buildup lead to a final frame which is easily the best artwork in the whole comic and which let me wanting to know more about this story. |

However, there's not much here for anyone else and of all the Dredd tales it's aged particularly badly. In short, there are a hundred Dredd stories I'd point folks towards before this. |

To be honest, the whole thing seems a bit forced and combined with the artwork puts me in mind of a group of folks playing 7th Sea while calling themselves Green Hornet, Vampirella etc. |

Venus has an interesting setting but is otherwise unremarkable from either a plot, characterization or artwork point of view. Im willing to check out the next edition to see what happens, but Im not exactly counting the days |

All in all, Revelations suffers from issues withpacing and exposition, resulting in a promising story becoming an afterthought. That said, the issue is redeemed somewhat by the quality artwork. |
