This was not what I was expecting… I thought it was going to be slapstick comedy making fun of the Kaiju genre and we’d all have a good laugh… I should have realized that the “Max” in the title was referring to prison… this books got heavy quick.

And so marks the end of the second story arc of Rai. I’ve been hard on this series since the beginning, but even it’s been really good and score high marks. I worried that everything was happening a little too easily in this series, but that’s why Matt Kindt is one of the best writers in the biz… he proved me wrong.

There’s nothing new I can say about Lenore. It’s one of those properties that have been around so long that it’s exhausted every compliment and even every criticism. Which is strange right? I mean it’s still doing new things and yet there’s nothing new to say about it? Well let’s try shall we?

If there is one thing that we have plenty of its Zombie stories. What was once a niche genre that confused the common woman or man, has now taken over the mainstream. You can thank a dozen properties ranging from movies, comics and video games for this undying trend. So the question when a genre becomes to big is, do we really need more?

If this were any other medium you’d likely skip The March of the Crabs, but thankfully it’s not. The March of the Crabs iterates one of the greatest things about the comic medium… you can tell any story.

Girl in Dior is a look at the life of Christian Dior. I almost hate to tell you anything about it, but I suppose the experience will be determined by your level of knowledge of Dior and the era in general. The thing is I became very attached to the main character and the way the story is told you really believe that this was a person plucked out of Dior’s life.

Epic is just a fun series. It does high school very well and I know that’s a terrible sentence, but you get it. I mean this book really captures the mentality of a high school boy for better or worse. Because let’s be honest, high school boys are stupid. I can say that because I was a stupid high school boy.

Well The Woods has been building towards something pretty big for the last four issues. Well, really the last twelve when you look at the series as a whole, but with each arc broken up in fours it’s easier to digest that way.
