Seven Seas Licenses Don't Meddle With My Daughter Manga

By Dustin Cabeal

Having given up on American superhero comics, I find that I'm really drawn to Japanese superhero comics. Things like ne-Punch Man, My Hero Academia and now on't Meddle With My Daughter have caught my attention because they take something very American and make it work in the Japanese storytelling way. Wish America would try to do the same, but we're still too focused on the tired tradition of superhero stories. At any rate, I'm interested in this, if only for the reason that it looks a little like Wonder Woman's costume. That and the hilarious translation problem on this temp cover that say "in my daughter" instead of "with my daughter." I have a feeling that won't make it over here.

Zenescope Reveals New Grimm Fairy Tales Series

By Dustin Cabeal

I was curious what Zenescope would do after ending their longest running titles and truly one of the longest running small press monthly titles as well. The answer it seems is, give Sela a daughter and go back to their roots. Which isn't bad. I'm kind of for it actually because I think shared universes in comics have become a pain. Everyone wants one, but even the big two are struggling to make people care about all aspects of the universe. I'm glad to see at least one publisher return to making stories that are self-contained rather than a part of a whole. We'll see how that story actually turns out though because Joe Brusha is writing it and while he's been better lately, he still has plenty of room for improvement.

HERETICS - An Exhibition of Folk-Horror Art

By Dustin Cabeal

Next week if you're in the Leeds area of the U.K. (Did that sound like I knew where that was? I don't, but God I wish I did), then you should check out P M Buchan's HERETICS art exhibition. As the headline already told you, it's folk-horror art, and just the fact that something like that exists is worth celebrating. Seriously, though, I wish I could go, but considering I can even use the cliche of "across the pond" to describe the distance from me to Leeds (please sound convincing), I won't be able to attend. I will say that P M Buchan is bad ass and I dig anything he's put together so show some support and check it out if you can. If you can't, you better have the exact distance in meters, of why you can't attend... or work I guess.
