  Comic Bastards - Justin Wood

  Aug 01, 2016

  I can't recommend it, but I can't condemn it. Alas, that feels like the best review I give a lot of indies, but such is the creator owned market. There are far worse comics out there, however, and while the story doesn't show creative promise, it doesn't mean it couldn't develop over time into something more original rather than so blatantly derivative. Still, you'd have a hard time bringing me back. Fantasy without a hook in the elevator pitch is about as exciting as the self published Batman/Punisher clones or horror anthologies that make up a bulk of the creator owned field at convention season. Making comics can be fun, but if it can't stand out then the comic will remain fun for one person alone, the person who wrote it. Read Full Review
