Jack Kirby! 2001 Space Odyssey! Is this readily available? I recently had this brought to my attention while reading a series of essays by Warren Ellis, more on that later.

Comics Last Week
I Kill Giants (Kelly/Nimura/Image) stole the show this week with its great wrap-around cover, and delivering a quick paced, action packed story with much to wonder about how things will wrap up in the final issue! I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough! Nimura’s Titan looks fantastic and the lettering makes sure every bit of [...]

(TOO MANY) Comics This Week
Kill Your Boyfriend (Morrison/Bond/Vertigo) was reprinted and unleashed today. I’d heard a bit of buzz about the book and decided to give it a try. Usually, I don’t care all too much for Grant Morrison, as I think he tends to muck up franchises with characters acting out of character. So I figure, with his [...]

Comics This Week!
Young Liars by David Lapham continues to surprise me each month as the story gets more and more outrageous. Its a fun romp that you need to be in the right frame of mind when you read, but if you are unclear about the mood or feeling in this book, you should be reminded that [...]

Comics Day! Super Late Edition!
Comics from July 02, 2008: it’s a late post, but I’ve been all over the place this week. I picked up the third issue (of five) of House of Mystery from Vertigo; it seems to provide Bill Willingham and Matthew Sturges with another outlet for their seemingly endless flow of stories that they just can’t [...]
