“Bedlam” has slowly gone from the top of my reading list to the bottom. Hopefully the ship will be find its course again so I can jump back on the boat.

The issue ultimately lacks heart and action. I was craving more carnage and less talk, but the cliffhanger ending offers hope that next issue will pack more of a punch.

The book takes a while to establish itself, but there is potential here. I look forward to issue #1 in hopes that it can build up some steam.

I like where the story is going and the art is stellar, but I`m waiting for some more tie-in information to come to the front of Abe`s ongoing.

It's becoming clear that Mignola has less to do with the “B.P.R.D.” books, but the Hell on Earth event proves that he's put his faith in good hands. Given how far into this event we are, shit will be hitting the fan anytime now…Hopefully. With 3 issues left in this arc, the story should start to pick up its pace next issue.

Lets get into the nitty gritty, Sergio Fernandez Davilas art style, I can't say is overly impressive. He brings a classic cartoony animation that I would associate with most average artists in comics. Im not saying it was bad, it certainly suited that story, it just wasnt anything to call home about. Aside from that, Santosh Kumar Raths colouring helps to kick things up with lots of bright colours in the outdoor atmosphere, and a darkened element as the situation changes from one of happy freedom to captivity. As a side note, very good job on the blood; if you read the book youll know the part of the story I'm talking about.

“Pariah” has a lot of potential and even though the first issue leaves some to be desired. There's something about the book that makes me want more, I'm just not sure what it is yet.

Great creativity in both the idea and its artistic paneling, but it does lack the bang for your buck factor as it's not the most exciting tale. There is potential in this story, and Arcudi is known for his creativity, so as a fan of Dark Horse I'm hoping the next one will bring a little bit more pow!

As far as art goes, issue #1 is top notch, the story however is developing a slower than I hoped for such a short miniseries.

Its a sad fact but Abe Sapien wont be back in his own ongoing until October, I dont know if this means that he will make appearances in other book along the way, but I am certain that we will miss this book in the meantime.

“Deadly Harvest” has a solid story line thus far and the idea behind the book itself gives it a good hook for any readers that enjoy a good scifi twist or even TV shows like “Deadliest Catch”. Its real easy to get in the characters heads while twists in the plot still leave it unpredictable, especially in the end.

This arc has not been my favourite arc from BPRD but it makes good ties to other books and elaborates on the Russian occult history.

Solid read, Liz Shermans Situation is getting real heavy and Im looking forward to seeing just what the story has in mind for her.

This week definitely blows the story wide open, and with only two issues remaining there is little doubt lots will be going on.

A solid issue to cap off what has been an informative and entertaining story arc. Looking very much forward to 2014 and the forth coming Reign of the Black Flame.

Though the pace is deliberate, fans of the series will dig the reveal of the Chapel of Bones. 2014 is shaping up to be an intense year for Baltimore.

Ben Stenbeck working in tandem with Dave Stewart gives this book the extra oomf it needs, with so much action going on it's the little details that for me are the most appealing. In many of the panels there are surging flames or skeletons transforming into dust but even the simplest put of dust is penciled into the illustration. I've been praising Dave Stewart for years and this book is just one of the many testaments to his skills as he puts panels with powerful colours next to ones with dark ones and shadows.

Bedlam has a lot of potential, though the story was confusing at times the ending tied together well, leaving so much room for the creative team to run free. The issue is also extra-sized, which gives you an extra bang for your buck. Every fan of the horror genre should read this book.

“Bedlam” is like a 7-layer nacho dip. It has many different layers that are becoming more mixed together and there's no end in sight. Not lacking violence and gore either, this book has potential to become one of my favorite reads.

This book is definitely a hit in my eyes with a fresh story that can draw in different types of horror hounds. Vampires tend to be overdone but this book does major justice to the genre.

Harvest is a very fresh take on a theme that is rarely touched on in any artistic medium. Any horror fan should love this book for its creativity and art, though this issue lacks the gore that we have come to love from Lorimer the story is still as twisted as ever.

A slower issue overall, but Im not to worried about it. With so much going on in the Mignolaverse Hellboy will surely play a predominant role.

The second and third issues of “Hoax Hunters” have rounded out the book. As the story plods along and the team gets closer to solving the case, there's no doubt the level of danger will increase as well. A solid read for anyone who wants jump into a new book thats only going to get better.

From the first issue, the writing and illustrations have been top notch, with no shortage of comical violence.

"Jack" fans have waited a long time for the return of their beloved samurai, and the creative team offers a solid start. At this point, it's hard to say if the series could sustain itself as an ongoing, but time will tell.

Im pretty impressed with this book, I know both these guys can put together quite the epic tale and this one has potential to rank up with the rest of their work.

Chosen is fast paced, action pack and as the story that grows from dark to ugly. Im really liking where this book is heading and with only two issues remaining the story will surely pick up its pace if thats possible.

Its just great having Abe back. This arc is only the beginning as this ongoing series while undoubtedly continue alongside BPRD and Hellboy in Hell.

Month to month Im always excited for more Abe Sapien.

This story line is really starting to tie into its two companion series. As the year rolls on I cant wait to see just what Mignola and the gang have in store for Abe Sapien.

Mike Mignola and John Arcudi knock another issue out of the park. I cant wait for “Hell on Earth” to really start unraveling.

Listen, if you havnt begun reading the Hell on Earth story line your are seriously starting to fall behind. Collect your pennies, beg on the corner, I dont care but get into your local shop and start powering through these books. You wont be disappointed.

After this issue I dont know whats coming next from Mignola and the gang, but I look forward to it wholeheartedly.

Fun, fast paced, and a cliff hanger to boot! If youre not sold on following the “Hell on Earth” event, I dont know what kind of comics youre reading! Get in there!

There we have it, another story arc in the BPRD world comes to a close but dont let that get you down! With Exorcism next week ending that means a brand spanking new arc is right around the corner and I doubt this is the last weve seen of any of the characters involved.

I truly am enjoying this arc. The writing and the art are stellar, making this a top notch entry into the B.P.R.D. canon.

Seeley is on a mission to deliver a new take on love and vampirism, and it's coming up roses thus far.

Though this book does centre around a love story (not my usual cup of tea) Im really enjoying the direction it is going, as well as the different creative elements that set it apart from other vamp comics. Dark Horse is quickly solidifying their rep as the big boss in horror comics and this book is just another example of their dominance.

“Extermination” #1 is quick and fun read that brings something new to the superhero genre. BOOM! has something on their hands with this one and it will be a treat to see how the characters compromise their respective codes and give into their survival instincts.

Harvest has me hook, line and sinker. This is shaping up to be one of the year's most refreshing horror stories.

Harvest fits its own niche and set a precedent for anyone who is thinking of dropping a book with a similar premise. If youre a horror fan and you havent read this book yet I dont know what youre waiting for, only one more left to cap it off.

With its combination of unique style and clever writing, I am impressed with this issue. There is only room for growth as the story arc trundles on.

Overall, a brilliant second issue to the story arc; both characters are developing quickly along with the plot. This is a must for horror fans.

Every issue is a genuine pleasant surprise. This one is no different and I can guarantee the next will be even more extreme.

It should be noted that this is a beautifully published volume. It's a 68-page story, no ads, a nice cover, interior flaps, and thick pages all for under ten bucks. It's well worth the cash.

The final few pages coupled with the art should make any Witchblade fans proud of Dynamite's work. It's two great issues for the price of one, which is always a good thing in my books.

This series is one of my favourites of the year, and I cant wait to see where Abes path takes him in coming issues.

If the Hellboy family books keep coming like this, my Best of 2014 list will lose vacancies quickly. “Abe Sapien” is an outstanding book that sets the tone for the coming year at Dark Horse.

Im incredibly impressed by how far this book has come from its first issue to now. Gabriel B and Fbio Moon have showcased their abilities as both writers and artists. This book finishes with a decent cliff hanger so it will be interesting to see how the final installment plays out.

Ain't no D-listers on this one, Mr. Liefeld.

A.J. Lieberman and Colin Lorimer have outdone themselves, and are pushing the boundaries of horror comics. Not only was I impressed by the entertainment value, but the art itself is beyond the level of many comics out there today. The sheer awesomeness of the book makes Harvest the new go to for horror fans.

Whether this is your first time or youre a diehard fan, Hellboy In Hell is the kicker to a very big chapter in not only Hellboys world.

As for the art by Fiona Staples, it is genuinely impressive how well it suits the story. Her clear cut lines, tedious characters faces, coupled sketchy lines for clothing and other elements of the environment compliment one another well. This is a deadly duo that will go down in the history books as one of the best.

If youve read my reviews before, you know this book is the be all end all of my existence, hate it or love it you have to appreciate what BKV and Fiona are doing for not only the genre but for comics in general.

If you can't tell, I absolutely love "Saga" and have since day one, not only because of the creativity within the art and story itself, but because the universe is vast, complicated, and genuinely awesome. A little something has been missing in my life these past few months, and this week I got it back.

There's no doubt that “Saga” has hit its climax, but I cant wait to witness the fallout in the new year.

If you havent picked up “Valen”, what are you waiting for? Action packed, fast pace, and an intricate story that I know will leave you craving the next issue. As this one comes to an end I can only wait in anticipation for the next issue.

Another home run is put into the books for Saga, Ill just quietly lock myself into my room and cry softly till next months issue.

“Saga”, potentially my favourite book in circulation, has so many different genre elements in it. I dare say the creative genius behind it rivals that of J.R.R. Tolkien and Frank Herbert. This hasn't been much of a review, but more of a spewing of my love for the series. It's that good.
