Review: Prison School vol. 8

By Dustin Cabeal

What continues to be amazing about Prison School is how it rotates the gags throughout the series. In some volumes, the gags are all sex related or themed like the S&M volume. There is of course always multiple themes and layers to the story, but in this particular volume one gag/theme stood out… urine.

Review: Umami #1

By Dustin Cabeal

Umami is one of the most delightful comics I’ve read all year. The storytelling has a strong manga influence, but not so much that a non-manga reader would be turned away from the structure and style. Because it’s embracing both styles though, there is something incredibly pure about it. Something that resonates because it’s a comic, trying to be a comic and nothing more.

Review: Coyotes #1

By Jonathan Edwards

Though far from perfect, I got a fair amount of personal enjoyment out of Sean Lewis’s first book, Saints. His second, The Few, failed to hook me, and I stopped reading after the second issue. Now, he returns to contemporary fantasy with Coyotes, and its first issue falls somewhere in-between those of his previous two books. That is to say, it gets going a lot faster than The Few, but its premise still requires more elaborate exposition to set up than the likes of Saints. That being said, I could easily see Coyotes having the greatest overall appeal of Lewis’s books so far.

Review: Redlands #4

By Daniel Vlasaty

I want to be completely honest here. Until very recently I had not read a single issue of Redlands. I’m not sure why this is. It’s been on my list. I own all the issues. Just never got around to reading them. So immediately before reading issue #4, I read all the previous issues. Had to catch up. And I am glad I did. Glad I finally got my head out of my ass and read this thing. Because the book’s fucking great. It’s easily the best horror book coming out right now.

Review: Mister Miracle #4

By Justin McCarty

Mitch and Tom continue to elevate comics to the high art we all know it can be. They continue to provide a superb example of literature as comics. Issue four maintains the pace of the previous issues, mostly due to that continuous nine-panel grid. If you aren’t on this comic by now you then it probably isn’t for you. That’s okay. If you have any interest at all in this comic you should be reading it. This is a comic that will be referred to again and again, like Watchmen, as an inspiration for many comics to come.
