The language feels very broken and staccato, while the art seems sloppy and a little rushed. I definitely want to pick up the next issue to reevaluate, and I'm hoping it will live up to the idea presented by the story.

If you loved that open-ending, then you should definitely pick up SWITCH. Originally a webcomic byStjepan Sejic, SWITCH takes classic lore from the WITCHBLADE universe but puts the gauntlet in the hands of a teenage girl. SWITCH is also published by Top Cow.

SPRING is so interesting and creative, taking many things that we don't see very often and tossing them together in a way that works without feeling fake. On the surface, SPRING is about zombies, but at SPRING's core, I think that there is something more. Something more personal and more human. I'm really interested to see where it goes from here.

Brown and Wood's Norway is brutal, aggressive, angry, and vastly interesting. Their depiction of this country is the biggest reason forthe interestthat I have for BLACK ROAD, and I look forward to seeing more.Intriguingcharacters, plot, and lovely artwork make this worth reading a few times, though there are a few small things that dampen the experience.

The simple, soft art and interesting, surreal story are what make SHE WOLF a great comic, even after just one issue. This first issue, without giving too much away, beautifully sets up the story and hints at what's to come.

I'm definitely looking forward to checking out future issues of THE VIOLENT.

This was a beautiful, sharp addition to the SEX CRIMINALS archive, while being interesting and respectful to all of the characters involved.

Along with the story, the art is stunning. Chip Zdarskycomplements Fraction's writing with his illustrations, using color in such a unique, beautiful way. Zdarsky'sillustrations add dimension to serious moments, jokes, and even makes jokes of its own. There are so many small, hidden touches to be found in the background of panels. Color is used in such a way that, most of the time, when Jon and Suzie are moving through time at a normal pace it is more muted and soft, while when they freeze time it's beautiful, colorful, and vibrant.

SEX CRIMINALS is one of the most consistently excellent comics in the market today and issue #15 " and all of arc three " proves that by covering a lot of very human issues with respect and a little humor in every issue.

To sum up, while this issue has alotof plot " sometimes confusing " there's also some gorgeous art from both Hans and McKelvie. If you want to pick this book up it's probably best you start at the beginning, but don't let that discourage you! Gillen is a wonderful writer and Hans, McKelvie, and other guest artists have amazing illustrations consistently.

There are only six issues as it is a mini-series, but there are two prior collections out there, so go pick them up before you dive into this one!

In an accidental coincidence, this last issue of Phonogram brings into light aspects of Emily and Michael Jackson's death, which ultimately turns the finale into a discussion on music love. It's a very beautiful and successful discussion of the fact that, whether they admit it or not, music has an effect on everyone and it causes so much pain and magic within us.
