In honor of the 5th issue of All-Star Batman and Robbing (you of your money) finally shipping, I thought I should finally update this page. But despite what I usually say here, there are a lot of great books being published now. So I'll stick with only 'Raves' this time, and mention a few books that I don't see a lot of people reading.
B.P.R.D.- Consistently brilliant and subtle all at the same time. Page after page of beautifully unfolding stories. If Lovecraft were alive today, he'd shake both their hands on a job well done.
Blade of the Immortal- Dark
Horse and DC have been expanding their publication of manga books exponentially
it seems, BUT no one needs Dawson's Creek Revisited in Japanese, with lesbian
vampires, and 13 year old girls with 44FFF breasts, etc. If you want/need
a reality check on how love, and ultimately violence, affect human lives you
should read this book.
52/Countdown- Like everyone
else, I'm sure, I still can't believe it's been a whole year gone by... Can
they do it again? No doubt. Say what you will about the book, it made me believe
there were still some real editors left in the world. This book came out WEEKLY
for an entire YEAR! There are a few big name books that can't even manage
two comics in the same amount of time.
Keep reading!
