The art is great but the writing can be pretty bad.

Everyone else I know who reads it loves it, though, so you might too.
I'll look into it. If I like it that'll be swell and if I don't, I only spent money on the first few issues. :p

I just finished Jeph Loeb's Daredevil: Yellow. Good stuff. Daredevil is really underappreciated.

Post what you think! I'm always curious about how people feel about that series... Plus, the first few issues are the better ones, so you'll most likely enjoy those.

Reading Skim by Mariko Tamaki and Jillian Tamaki. Loving it. Will need more graphic novel recommendations. Doc - Anyone?

P.S. Doc: Have you read The Squirrel Machine? Picked it up for the boyfriend and I think it's something you'll really dig... Haven't read it myself yet, but when I read the positive review in Rue Morgue I thought of you immediately.

Not really, it's among the more renowned DD minis.
I liked it too.


So if anyone wants to check out an interesting horror title with REALLY good art, check out FVZA (Federal Vampire and Zombie Agency)...sounds a bit silly I know, but I checked it out and really enjoyed reading it - and the art, as I said...just fucking awesome.
Pick it up, I'm sure the horror community will like it.

I just picked up Choker #1, Irredeemable #11, Blackest Night #7, and Popgun Vol 4.

I am officially not interested in super heroes (main stream) outside of Batman, if you count him, at this point thanks to Blackest Night. I lost interest when I quit my job running a comic shop and now it's completely dead to me. I'll stick with my fantastic Dark Horse and Vertigo titles with some Image in there as well.

You got Choker 1? They sold out before I got a chance! Lucky. Tell me how awesome it is.

It was pretty awesome. A solid setup issue for sure. That sucks that your shop sold out. When I still worked at my shop I built up a pretty large Templesmith fanbase so there is never concern for their not being books of his on the shelf. So, it's not really luck, haha. :p

Blackest Night runs really hot and cold. I'd be stoned to death on the Wizard forums for saying this, but I like Final Crisis better.
