Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #261
Velvet #1 — Writer: Ed Brubaker; Art: Steve Epting Image’s creator-owned titles have just been knocking it out of the park (ooh, World Series baseball metaphors!) all year, and this one is no exception; it’s by an established team (Brubaker and Epting spent years together on their well-regarded Captain America run), within an established genre (’60s/’70s-style spy thrillers, ala James Bond or Man From U.N.C.L.E.), but with an interesting twist (it focuses on the secretary/love interest of the spy agency, normally a throwaway character, who of course turns out to be much more than she seems). Brubaker is very good … Continue reading

The Latest and (Mostly) Greatest #86 by Dan!
All right folks we’re back! It’s another great week of comics with plenty worth talking about. Let’s do this! Letter 44 #1 Writer: Charles Soule Artist: Alberto Jimenez Alburquerque This new comic is probably the most interesting thing to come out this week. A new president takes office and right before his inauguration, he reads a letter left by his predecessor. Apparently something was found out in space and it is building stuff out in space and the previous president did everything he could to learn about it, regardless of what it did to the American people. The new president … Continue reading

Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #260
After all those weeks of DC 3-D books, let’s take a break from the Marvel and DC heroes, and look at all the cool comics published by other companies this week instead: Battling Boy Graphic Novel #1 — Writer/Artist: Paul Pope Pope’s art is like a fusion of Jack Kirby and Robert Crumb; he’s got all their crackling energy and sure lines, and straddles the divide between mainstream superheroics and underground anarchy just perfectly. He’ll work for a major company, but on his own terms (see the remarkable Batman: Year 100), but he’s always been happiest charting his own course, … Continue reading

The Latest and (Mostly) Greatest #85 by Dan
All right, we’re back! This week, no villains covers. Looks like I have about 500 less words to write. Let’s do this! Lazarus #4 Writer: Greg Rucka Artist: Michael Lark In this issue, moving pieces finally create some actual results and consequences of the actions. Forever Carlyle (our protagonist) has to deal with her brothers actions and what he’s doing to her family. It’s all been very high-concept, attempting to create all these different families amid the struggle to stay within a specific class. It’s a lot of fun, and this issue really ramps up the stakes. Everyone is … Continue reading
