Review: Xena: Warrior Princess Omnibus vol. 1

By Ashley Gibbs

I’ve always had an interest in strong female characters growing up and still do. She-Ra, Wonder Woman and of course Xena, whose television show mixed strength and humor with ancient Greek mythology.

Review: Eleanor and the Egret #1

By Levi Remington

In John Layman and Sam Kieth's eclectic and surreal ode to classic European fables, Eleanor and the Egret #1 tells the story of Eleanor, a woman who steals art from all across Paris with the help of her magical pet bird, an Egret, who eats the stolen art and consequently expands in size by a significant degree, as birds do. Read ahead for my thoughts on the delightful beginnings of this bizarre miniseries. In the meantime, I'll be pondering the origins of a feather with Cheswick the cat, lamenting the absence of my Bird-Identification specialties, and picking advanced locks with the beak of a mystical heron.

I think now that Chew is over everyone's going to be a little more interested in what John Layman is up to, but I'll admit that I didn't see him doing a series with Sam Kieth as one of his next projects. There's a quote from Layman about their new series Eleanor & The Egret, and it sounds crazy, but the type of crazy that makes you want to pick it up first thing on April 5th.
