Review: Sink #5

By Dustin Cabeal

This review is long overdue. I wish I had read this issue a lot sooner because it is just a great conclusion to the first volume of the series. Let’s just say that I don’t regret picking Sink as my best comic of last year, it finishes strong with the fifth issue and manages to highlight all the great things about the series in the process.

Review: Sink #4

By Dustin Cabeal

At the end of every year, we roll out our list of the best and worst comics. It’s a tricky thing because where do you draw the line. Some titles have completed, while others are just starting, but show fantastic promise. There is a time in the past in which I picked a book for one of my best of choices that had just started, and while that first issue or so were great, the series quickly tapered off. Since then I like to give a series a few more under the belt before putting them on my list.

Review: Sink #1

By Dustin Cabeal

If I wanted to, I could name two movies and infer that Sink is in several ways the love child of the two movies and it would be enough to convince you of not only the quality but the excitement that is Sink. I could do that, but we’re talking about a comic, and quite frankly I have never read anything like Sink before. Perhaps I’ll tell you the name of the movies at the end of the review, and if you’re so inclined, you can jump to the end and call it a day. If you stay, well then that means you must love comics and are dying to know about ComixTribe’s newest title.

Preview: Sink #1 Out Today!

By Dustin Cabeal

I'll be honest; I thought Sink was already out. Sometimes I'm lost in the bubble of the inside baseball that is the site, and so I don't know when anything releases. That said, you should fucking pick this book up. If you need more convincing, then read the preview or my reviews for the first three issues below. To give you an idea of how damn good Sink is, it's in the running for my best book of the year.

Review: Sink #2

By Dustin Cabeal

I told you I would be back for this review. Sink is by far one of the best series I’ve read this year. It is not for the faint of heart as the violence is at times horrific. It is almost as if John Lees is carving out a new style of horror, a style that’s frightening realistic and yet not in a throwback way. It’s not like Rob Zombie’s movies in which you have to ignore any sense of modernism and transport yourself to a bygone era. No, instead it’s insanely realistic and modern making it just so frightening. Also, goddamn clowns, not in this issue, but in general.

Attend a Free "Horror In Comics" Panel... WITHOUT Going to a Comic Convention

For years, creators have likened Kickstarter to a 30-day online comic convention.

This week, one publisher is taking that anaology one step further, by adding a popular comic convention staple -- the Horror in Comics Panel -- to a successful Kickstarter campaign.
