The Sandman: The Dream Hunters
Published on 2011-11-19 16:12:00
It went like this: Neil Gaiman was hired to work on the localisation of Studio Ghibli’s Princess Mononoke, and through that process he met artist Yoshitaka Amano. They made plans. Somewhere in the heavens the stars aligned, and in my world a little piece of heaven fell to earth. The Dream Hunters is a stand-alone story within the extended Sandman universe so it doesn’t require any special > read more
10 TV Series That Would Make Great Comics
Published on 2011-11-15 19:57:00
From Supernatural to Dexter to the popular Whedonverse comics, more and more television series are continuing stories or telling new ones in the comic book medium. It can be a great way to carry on plot points without worrying about actors, or to do things that budgets don't allow. I'm a huge fan of serialized fiction, and I think tv and comics are often great for pretty similar reason. So, in no > read more
Review: Demon Knights #3
Published on 2011-11-14 10:31:00
It's a testament to how fast paced Demon Knights has felt that this issue felt like a bit of a breather. Sure, people may have been dragged to hell, heraldic dragons may have been dodged, and the enemy may have upped the ante, but this issue still took things slowly compared to last month's dragon slicing delight. While I always enjoy a rollicking good action scene, it was nice to get a better > read more
Review: Rachel Rising #1-3
Published on 2011-11-13 18:40:00
I didn't develop an appreciation for Terry Moore until fairly recently. Somehow I missed out on Strangers in Paradise when everyone was raving over it, and I wasn't terribly familiar with his work outside of that and his brief run Runaways. Then, a particularly awesome person I know was kind enough to send me Echo, and it didn't take me long to see just what made Terry Moore so great. It only > read more
Review: Batwoman #3
Published on 2011-11-10 15:12:00
Batwoman can be a challenging series to review. The art is so overwhelming that it can be hard to look at the comic as a whole instead of focusing on that one beautiful piece. I was so sucked in by this issues dreamlike underwater pages that I lost all interest in turning the page. All I wanted to do was watch the way the water flowed from panel to panel, to admire the details JH Williams III > read more

Comics You Should Be Reading: Locke & Key
Published on 2011-11-08 18:36:00
When I decided to check out Locke & Key, I made the mistake of only grabbing a few comics. It looked interesting enough, and I figured I'd flip through them the next time I was bored and looking for something to read. One hour later, I had devoured every issue. I was completely immersed in this world, completely attached to these characters, and didn't know how I was supposed to wait to read > read more
Review: Red Hood and the Outlaws #2
Published on 2011-11-07 21:15:00
In the first issue of Red Hood and the Outlaws we’re introduced to Red Hood (former Batman sidekick Jason Todd), Arsenal (not yet code named in the new DCU Roy Harper, former Green Arrow sidekick, though that’s never explicitly stated either), and Starfire (Exiled alien Princess Koriand’R). They’re not a team but Red Hood & Arsenal have worked together before, and Arsenal has worked with > read more
