Review: The Borgias

Don’t read this book. The only thing worth talking about in The Borgias is that at one point there is literally a bag of dicks. They actually present a bag of 150 bloody dicks. Which is also how I would describe the book.

Review: The Bigger Bang #1

One of the major reasons I stayed away from superhero comics for a while is that they all seemed to start taking on the same appearance and tone. So many writers had adapted the Bendis School of wisecracking hero talking to other wisecrackers (Don’t shoot. I love the dude. DD #50 rules) that the voices all bled together.

Conspiracy theories are everywhere in the modern world. There are books, websites and documentaries devoted to the things, and they’re also the subject of this new series from Justin Jordan and BOOM! Studios.

Review: Grindhouse: Drive In, Bleed Out #1

The subtitle change for this series signifies not only a new chapter in this exploitation comic done right but also a series shift in tone. Whereas Grindhouse: Doors Open at Midnight stood as homage to the wonderful films of the 70s that utilized the sex and violence to an elevated art form and beyond mere salacious perversion, Drive In, Bleed Out conveys a metaphoric, cautionary tone.

Review: Django/Zorro #1

Plotwise, not a lot happens in this issue. Django meets Don Diego de la Vega aka Zorro on the road, neither man is what he really appears at first. Django isn't the prospector he says he is, and Diego is more than the eccentric dandy he seems to be.

Review: Wytches #2

Scott Snyder and Jock’s Wytches #2 isn’t so much a book filled with scares as it is a building sense of unsettling feelings, all combined into one big comic book. It’s delightful in the most uncomfortable possible way.

Review: Fraggle Rock: Journey to the Everspring #2

The brilliant colors and fantastic illustrations of this book will draw young readers in, and the kid-friendly, adventure-filled story will make the reading experience a pleasurable one. Jim Henson’s muppet creatures that live in the walls and explore the fantastic cave-like worlds get a faithful adaptation in this comic book.

Review: Teen Dog #3

It is no surprise that I would probably get a rad tattoo of Teen Dog on my ass if my cats would let me. This comic makes me fall in love with fun again and again. Teen Dog is the hit of the year for me, and I hope that you can jump on board and if you don’t have cats, get a tat of this dog.

Review: Copperhead #3

It’s unfortunate that when creators pull off a story that it sometimes takes a while to appreciate just how truly kickass the work is. After my first reading of Copperhead #3, I thought ‘Well that was fun,’ and closed the file on my digital reader.
