Chew #1 |
Jun 5, 2009 |
Guillory completes this fine script with clunky, semi-exaggerated artwork that fits the mood of the issue almost perfectly. The climactic scene of the issue featuring a showdown between Chu and the serial killer sous chef is a collection of panels you have to see to believe, showcasing blood, knives and teeth. Is this a zombie book? The collection of action, close-ups and color alterations that make up this comic book are visually remarkable, completing an issue that is definitely a must read for comic fans looking for a different kind of fix. Oh, and I wouldnt eat anything while youre reading Chew. You might just find out youre a closet cibopath, and you dont wanna know where that Twinkie came from. |

Gigantic #1 |
Nov 3, 2008 |
In short, this is an issue you should definitely pick up this Wednesday. Remenders story and Nguyens outstanding artwork (in combination with fitting colors by Matthew Wilson) produce a thrill ride that is worth the price of admission. If you live in San Francisco, this is your wake up call. |

Mirror's Edge #1 |
Oct 31, 2008 |
I think thats enough bashing for today, and I think this negative view is justified. Wildstorm shouldnt produce a $4 comic book that insults a readers intelligence as badly as Mirrors Edge. |

Back to Brooklyn #1 |

On an unrelated note, the preview for Four Eyes in the back of this issue, by Joe Kelly and Max Fiumara, looks very intriguing. Ill check that out soon. |

Fables #70 |
Mar 7, 2008 |
The ending of issue #70 is so light-hearted that you may temporarily forget that these same characters are heading into a war from which some of them may not return. However, I'm sure that, beginning with next issue, we are going to see a desperate yet confident Fabletown army start the gears of conflict against the Adversary and his forces. As a fan from the very beginning, I know that the buildup to the jumbo-sized 75th issue will yield some great reads that will further cement Willingham's epic as one of the great comic series' of the last ten years. |

Hellblazer #237 |
Oct 30, 2007 |
It looks like Diggle will be Hellblazers writer for at least the next six months, so I hope he puts a little more thought into Constantine and develops his character past the static doppelganger we have seen lately. This is the same guy who wrote The Losers, so I know hes got it in him! |
