V. reviews The Movement #4 & The Legend of Luther Strode #6
Hey guys! I'm reviewing stuff again. This week is two quick reviews on Gail Simone's slow-burn in The Movement #4 and the explosive final issue of The Legend of Luther Strode.

Nate Simpson on ‘Nonplayer’ and the art of creative perseverance
In the spring of 2011, “Nonplayer #1” (Image Comics) generated the kind of excitement that independent comics creators dream of. Written and illustrated by videogame concept artist Nate Simpson, the series introduced readers to Dana Stevens, a tamale delivery girl who escapes her mundane reality through the full-immersion online game “Warriors of Jarvath.” The praise...

Comic Judgment: Mind the Gap #1
Mind the Gap #1 Written by Jim McCann Art by Rodin Esquejo and Sonia Oback Letters by Dave Lanphear Image Comics is on fire. Week after week, it’s churning out some of the most interesting and innovative comic books around, and Mind the Gap #1 is no exception. On one level, it’s a tantalizing mystery... Continue Reading →
G3 Review: Danger Club #1
Danger Club #1 (Image Comics) Written by Landry Q. Walker Art by Eric Jones and Michael “Rusty” Drake Letters by Richard Starkings and Jimmy Betancourt In comics, every teen hero reaches a point where he or she wants to prove capable of saving the world, or at least the day, without adult supervision. It’s a timeless... Continue Reading →
G3 Review: Alpha Girl #2
Imagine if Archie were a grindhouse film, The Walking Dead met Strange Girl, or Pee Wee from Porky’s rolled up an issue of Chew … and smoked it. These are the things I think of as I read Alpha Girl, but Alpha Girl #2 isn’t quite any of those things. With a zombie apocalypse on the horizon, this intentionally gratuitous tale of a 17-year-old girl tries really hard to be fun. Maybe too hard.

Stream of Comicsness – Week of 11.02.2011
Artists To Watch I finally got around to reading Justice League Dark #2 from last week's stash. There's no doubt that Milligan knows what he's doing when it comes to stories like this, at least that's what I've heard. The plot is still a bit of a mystery. But one thing is for sure; Mikel...

Comic Judgment: All Nighter
Stories about jaded, adrift young adults are plentiful in the indie comics genre, but All Nighter has more to offer than generic hand-wringing. For one thing, there’s that opening line: “My name is Kit Bradley. Nine years ago, I killed my mother.” That is one hell of a teaser, but writer/artist Dave Hahn is taking... Continue Reading →

2010 Memorable Moment: Darla the DJ

Miss Daramount, the headmistress of Morning Glory Academy, is the sexy librarian from hell. And from the moment she appears in Morning Glories #1, you can't look away.
