4/18/12 New Comics Day
Got my missed Conan the Barbarian from last week. Wood and Cloonan continue to knock this one out of the park with their adaptation of "Queen of the Black Coast"...
This month's Prophet moves to a different Prophet clone and a new weird scifi setting. Still great though...
Knights of the Dinner Table focuses mostly on two stories. The UT+2 vs. Knobby Foot in Bag World and the Black Hands with Gordo behind the screen. Though there are some sub-plots going on involving Crutch trying to get his GM credentials and Weird Pete looking to get involved with "rogue" Hackmaster groups, looking to win some back to the sanctioned fold...
Thunderbolts is more original team meets new team, with the "hero" vs. "hero" fight leading to the rote team-up. Well except that nearly everyone involved at this point is like 90% villain/10% hero...
Wonder Woman an Hermes travel to the Underworld to rescue Zola. Also I'm trying to figure out whether Eros is supposed to be Hephasteus son in this version or if he just really gets along well with his step-father...
Only skimmed most of the latest Dark Horse Presents, but its still got 8-new pages of Finder and some more Evan Dorkin oddness and some Criminal Macabre. Plus a Russian crime story that I wouldn't mind seeing some more of...
