Kenzerco gets a quick turn around putting out a new Knights of the Dinner Table. With the whole Gamer's Court mostly handled off-panel so that they can shift the story over to GaryCon. With the main focus being on the road trip to the con by a majority of the cast...

And Kirkman relaunches his Invincible companion book, Guarding the Globe. And ( Read more... )

Hey look, day of comics commentary. Suck it procrastination! Starting with the second issue of Resident Alien. I thought this DHP spin-off would be an ongoing, but it looks like it will only be a 3-issue mini. Four with that zero issue with the collected bits from Dark Horse Presents. With another murder, Harry the Secret Alien looks into ( Read more... )

Another big pull week. Starting with some more Fatale. With more spooky dudes, violent cops, murder and lots and lots of smoking...

And then Paul Grist talks about how he hopes his teen-super comic Mudman will be the financial success that Jack Staff never managed to be. Don't get wrong, its looking to be a very nice little quirky cape comic. ( Read more... )

This is probably the first issue of the new volume of Dark Horse Presents that I'm actually disappointed with. Yeah its got a wonderfully creepy Beasts of Burden ghost story. And the end to Chaykin's revenge crime story is generally satisfying. And the new post-apocalyptic Tarzan and the preview of Brian Wood's Massive are both intriguing. But ( Read more... )

A fairly hefty pull this week, despite a few missing items thanks to Diamond. Starting with the latest Dark Horse Presents. Which includes a new Mike Mignola "Hellboy", a Stan Sakai "Usagi Yojimbo", a bit of wonderful strangeness from Brandon Graham and more from Andi Watson, Howard Chaykin and Carla Speed McNeil. Even at eight bucks an issue, ( Read more... )

And we end the month with a relatively light pull. Though its one that has a new Mouse Guard: the Black Axe. With a clan of ferrets. Who look weird with chest armor with those long bodies...

Then more of Thunderbolts lost in time. With the rogue group having to try and stop Hyde and Satanna from acting as Jack the Ripper. Though their ( Read more... )

Seriously Marvel you can stop with the .1 and .whatever issues of books. I mean this Villains for Hire makes for a nice bridging issue between the previous Heroes for Hire and the new series. But there is no damn reason it couldn't have just been an issue #1...

I'm also not to crazy about this Sean Chen dude as the new penciler on Avengers ( Read more... )

New Dark Horse Presents this week. With the highpoint still being "Finder". Though Chaykin's tough-guy thief story looks to be picking up. And a nice short piece by Andi Watson about attempting to teach zombies to dance. Oh and Eric Powell of "The Goon" opens the issue up with a strong piece where a robot gets the SPAAAACE MADNESS ( Read more... )

A very light week, with DC holding back everything but the end of their terrible Flash-related Event and the start of nuDC. And for some reason Marvel going light as well. Leaving just a pair of Image titles to close out the month. Invincible has the titular character continue on his new path, looking for new ways to handle the standard cape ( Read more... )
