“Dresden Files: Dog Men” #1

By | Jun 16, 2017 | Reviews

The Dresden Files has been blessed with a pretty decent comics adaptation. Not only do the Dynamite miniseries cover the events of the books, they fill in the gaps between the books. Harry’s smaller adventures have been, on occasion, fun stories for fans of the series. With Dog Men, Harry Dresden and his allies have […]

“There’s Nothing There” #2

By | Jun 16, 2017 | Reviews

Maria Llovet’s smart, stylish illustrations continue to dazzle while writer Patrick Kindlon’s sarcastic dialogue provides bitingly clever commentary on celebrity obsession and the pitfalls of being famous. The story itself, however, falls a little short, leaving the book’s high concept promise largely unfulfilled. There’s definitely something there, but so far it’s not quite enough. Written […]

“You Can’t Just Kiss Anyone You Want”

By | Jun 13, 2017 | Reviews

Things as simple as painting your nails, or trimming your mustache. It is a story about trying to find freedom in culture that will […]

“The Divided States of Hysteria” #1

By | Jun 9, 2017 | Reviews

Comic creator Howard Chaykin isn’t one to shy away from a little controversy. In fact, he actively courts it. A little too actively, perhaps. In advance of his latest project he said, “”Black Kiss” was banned in the UK and Canada – “The Divided States of Hysteria” may very well get me arrested here in […]
