Review: Myopia #1

By Dustin Cabeal

Since I’ve been reviewing comics, Dynamite has always been a strange publisher to review. Overall, there’s no consistency to their product which makes them hard to compare to other publishers. Perhaps being all over is what works for them. It’s how they can produce titles that I find dreadful, but then also produce something like Myopia that I love. At the end of the day, though, it’s hard for me to say “Oh man, I hope they make more books like Myopia” because I know they won’t. I don’t know what they’ll do next… probably more Smosh or some shit.

Review: Prospects #1

By Dustin Cabeal

While looking at the cover for Prospects, I instantly played the “one of these things is not like the other” game and focused in on the guy dead center. I knew in a heartbeat that he was going to be the main character due to his annoyed look and disheveled appearance.

Review: Monster of the Week #1

By Dustin Cabeal

For the longest time on the site, we supported Kickstarters and crowdsourced comics in general. After a long while, I noticed that we stopped moving the needle on these projects. There were too many, and our audience either became numb to them or worse, stopped caring about them. Either way, we dropped Kickstarters from the site unless we could review the material. Of course, all this feeds into Monster of the Week which is heading to Kickstarter. The book is finished which is always the best way to bring your comic to Kickstarter, and so the creators sent it my way to check out. I’ll tell you right now: this is the type of book we were always looking to support and help out.

Review: T.I.T.S. #1

By Justin Wood

Sometimes a book comes along to make you appreciate this visual medium. A reminder of the talent and skill goes into books, sometimes completely unappreciated, the kinds of choices being made by artists that are misattributed or unconsciously ignored. T.I.T.S, curiously, did that for me. Despite being a writer and artist myself, it made me reevaluate the real impact the choices of an artist have on how stories are experienced in ways that are separate from the creative choices of the writer. It's not because T.I.T.S was particularly meaningful or imaginative in its choices, but rather because it took me till halfway through the book to finally realize that it had nothing going on in the writing department but was disguised by some pretty decent art.
