Review: The Delinquents #1

Review: Supreme Blue Rose #1

Okay, so full disclosure? The first and last time I read a comic book featuring this character was 1992‘s Supreme #1, wherein the transparent Superman pastiche fights with the equally obvious Marvel super-team ripoff, Youngblood, in space.

Review: Tether #1

What do you get when you take a little bit of Conan… well maybe a little bit of Red Sonja; mix it up with some elements of a futuristic Roman Empire, some genetic mad science, and some traditional revolutionary struggle.

Review: Hellbillies #0

Here’s the thing about Hellbillies, if I had reviewed this book just after reading it then I would have scored it lower. The fact is, it’s not perfect, but it creates a world that is very enjoyable and entertaining.
