by Chris Roberson (writer), Mike Allred (art), Laura Allred (colors), and Todd Klein (letters) The Story: Gwen gets to know Amon, who explains the existence of monsters, while Horatio fights Claire the vampire.

Posted on June 5, 2010 by paladinking

by Chris Roberson (writer), Mike Allred (art), Laura Allred (colors), and Todd Klein (letters) The Story: Gwen closes in on the murderer while one of the vampire paintballers gets a little too murderous. What’s Good: This is a big improvement from last month’s issue that assuages most of my concerns regarding this series. One of [...]

Jenna Jameson’s Shadow Hunter #2 – Review

Posted on April 25, 2008 by mulderwastaken

By Jenna Jameson (created & story), Christina Z (story & script) & Mukesh Singh (art) Heh, I was right with my review of the first issue. Issue #2 is another weird tale and it doesn’t get much better either. I really don’t know what it is about this series – maybe I was expecting something [...]

Amazing Spider-Man #557 – Review

Posted on April 16, 2008 by Deamentia

By Zeb Wells (writer), Chris Bachalo (pencils, colors), Townsend, Irwin, Faucher, Mendoza, and Vey (inks), Antonio Fabela (colors) Just when I’ve hit my comfort zone with Chris Bachalo drawing Spider-Man he leaves. It’s just not fair, I tell ya! He and writer, Zeb Wells have arguably constructed the best Brand New Day story arc yet. [...]

Titans #1 – Review

Posted on April 11, 2008 by Deamentia

By Judd Winick (writer), Ian Churchill (pencils), Norm Rapmund (inks), Edgar Delgado (colors) I’m not the most well-versed person when it comes to DC lore, so it’s always been intimidating for me to jump on a book. Thankfully, Judd Winick has made Titans #1 an accessible book for just about anyone who’s never picked up [...]

By: Andrew Stroscher (creator), Will Wilson & Joanne Moore (writer), Tone Rodriguez & Rick Ross (illustrator) & Nei Ruffino (colors) A century ago, monsters and mutants started to come out of their closets, becoming part of human traditions and way of life.

Posted on February 26, 2008 by mulderwastaken

By Anthony Johnston (writer) & Ben Templesmith (art) Dead Space is an Electronic Arts game that’s going to be released in Fall 2008 for video game consoles and the PC platform. This comic is the prequel to that game, and since I’m going to buy the game, I don’t mind reading the comic book to [...]

Jenna Jameson’s Shadow Hunter #1 – Review

Posted on February 22, 2008 by mulderwastaken

By Jenna Jameson (creator & story), Christina Z (story & script) & Mukesh Singh (art) First of all, no, it’s not a porn comic book. It may have that stigma associated with it because of Jenna Jameson’s name, but it has nothing to do with that (sorry, guys). Believe me, you’ll find more porn in [...]

Afterburn #1 – Review

Posted on February 4, 2008 by mulderwastaken

By: Scott Chitwood (Creator & Script), Paul Ens (Script), Wayne Nichols (Pencils), Nick Schley (Inks), Marc Hampson & Andrew Dalhouse (Colors) I have mixed reactions with this comic. The concept is interesting: a solar flare hits half of the Earth’s surface, killing or mutating that side of the population. The story starts a year after [...]
