That's all that happens. No action. Some dialogue that someone thought was clever, and some halfway decent art.

To be honest, I found it pretty much by the numbers and fairly tedious. The art and the black pages really make the comic gritty.

As first issues go, this one gave me no clue of where the series, or the character is going, and really no reason to buy the next issue. I certainly hope next issue is better.

Pretty art, but really not a lot of story.

A fairly good beginning, and a plausible way to get two very different concepts together. Not bad.

A good effort, and the cartoonish art by Jeremy Treece helps to sell the surrealist magic at work in the book.

A solid issue. We'll see exactly who and what Jungle Jim actually is in subsequent issues.

A collection of three short feature in Dark Horse Presents gets right to the action, with a refreshing lack of self doubt and self pity. I really hope the villain Xog, King of Saturn appears soon.

A great first issue. This is a different take on the Frankenstein Monster - the most unusual that I've seen in a long time. Nolan's art is excellent. There's a promise of appearances by most, if not all, of the Universal Monsters sooner or later.

There's plenty of fodder in the Universal Monster roster, and the traditional folklore of every culture on earth. I'm already looking forward to next issue!
