• Review – The Colonized TPB (IDW Publishing)

    Writer: Chris Ryall Artist: Drew Moss The four-issue run of IDW’s Colonized, (essentially ‘Zombies versus Aliens’) has a lot going for it, but a few slight niggles that prevent it from becoming something truly memorable. I should start off with one of the major plus points, that being the terrific artwork of Drew Moss. With…

  • Review – Memory Collectors #1 (of 3) (IDW Publishing)

    Writer: menton3 Artist: menton3 It’s nice when a comic book takes you by surprise. My initial reaction as I looked through the review-file for ‘Memory Collectors’ was that this is just a tailor-made-for-Goths book about demon-slaying chicks in fetish gear. I wouldn’t say I was proven entirely wrong , but I would say that this…

  • Review – Abe Sapien #6 (Dark Horse)

    Writer: Mike Mignola, Scott Allie Artist: Sebastian Fiumara As a long time fan of Hellboy and BPRD I’ve really enjoyed this series so far, and issue #6 is a pretty good jump on point.

  • Review – Shaolin Cowboy #1 (Dark Horse)

    Writers: Geof Darrow Artist: Geof Darrow I’m not really sure where the hell this series is going ,but I’m pretty sure I’ll be going along for the ride. Playing out like a cross between an arty….eh…art house story and something from the grindhouse genre, this first issue manages to tell the majority of the story…

  • Review – Cryptozoic Man #1 (of 4) (Dynamite)

    Writer: Bryan Johnson Artist: Walt Flanagan So before I review this comic maybe I should add a disclaimer that… Yeah I am a bit of a SMod/View Askiew fan. Why is that a necessary statement?, Well I have made posts here and there and mentioned it and I don’t want to seem biased. Now as…

  • Review – Red Sonja #4 (Dynamite Entertainment)

    Writer: Gail Simone Artist: Walter Geovani I’ve always – somewhat ignorantly – dismissed Red Sonja in the past, assuming it to be pointless cheesecake fare; one-dimensional eye candy without much in the way of true storytelling merit. Well, consider this review my official apology to the franchise. Because I have no problems admitting that, well,…

  • Review – Colder TP (Dark Horse Comics)

And now finally we have the trade paperback, collecting the five individual issues together along with some interesting sketches and notes from Ferreyra and Tobin.…
