"Tales of Supernatural Law"

WORTH CONSUMING!

Excellent stuff, worth reading. A great and fun series to read.

 

 

"Crypto Zoo Crew, Volume 1"

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

Just plain bad. Stereo-typical characters- a sexist male lead character, and awful puns.

Don’t waste your time.

 

"Light Brigade

Worth Consuming

This book should be called “Saving Private Ryan’s Soul." A great tale about a group of US Army men being recruited by God’s Angelic Army to save the world and Heaven from being ruled by a group of Nephillim, fallen angels.

Much of the biblical references are accurate and it is a heartwarming story of redemption. A bit gory, almost like nudity in Oscar movies gory there in the open for all to see, but tastefully done.

Excellent art and great writing.

 

"Avengers: The Ultimate Guide"

WORTH CONSUMING!

DK (this book’s publisher) does excellent work. Their travel guides are essential to take with you.

So if you want to learn about the team that is the Avengers, but afraid to commit to a 500+ issue title before hand, this guide is essential to guide you along.

It answered many of my questions about characters and storylines. So if you want to know just what’s up with the Disassembled and Ultimates storylines, there are very detailed, yet brief entries about both.

"Poor Sailor"

A very sad story with hardly any words. I read it in less than 4 minutes. Not worth a $10.95 price tag, so do what I did and check it out from the library.

"Wolverine" — by Frank Miller (The Japanese Saga)

WORTH CONSUMING!

Excellent story and amazing art! A fantastic independent story of the Clawed One in the Land of The Rising Sun. The Afterword by Frank Miller is worth the book alone. A+++

If you want to learn more about Wolverine’s Japan origins read Essential X-Men Vol. 1 and 2.

 

"What if... (Volume 3) Aunt May had Died Instead of Uncle Ben?"

The most realistic Spiderman story, no, Comic Book story ever told. Its  swear to God 100% accurate. Heck, this title should be a non-fiction book.

Why so real, you ask?

The story is told from the perspective of two guys in a comic book store, the idealistic/odd owner, and the cool/I’ll humor you, customer. The Owner is speculating as to what Spidey’s life would be had Aunt May died and Uncle Ben took the rap for Spidey’s accidental killing of May’s murder. Comic book owners do this all the time. No Lie!!!! So since this book is basically 2 guys B-S their way through a comic legends mythos, though what happens in the story is fake by the storytelling is real! Still it’s worth consuming.

"Watchmen"

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

I love Alan Moore, This is not, by far, his best. I did not like the gritty, graphic universe in which Richard Nixon is still president by 1985. The ending was pretty smart, except that the “bad guy” does the all-time cliché of all comics- a monologue, a 20 page monologue!!!

And what’s with Hooded Justice? Who was he what was the big mystery to his identity. I understood he was gay- but was that the big mystery or who in fact was under the mask? I thought it was the later.

And the Pirate comic inside of the comic- I didn’t get it.

Too many mysteries- if I wanted mysteries, I would have played CLUE instead.

Sorry, no go for me.
