Field #4 roy, brisson, and gough

 

well, basically if come to my house and read the first four issues of this comic and are not satisfied with the art, story and colors i will throw you out a window.... O.K. that would be a little violent but so is this comic. Lots of fighting in this issue #4 and even some vomit... ohh also large Trekie women,Bikers, and even a topless beer gutted man! It's just awesome and this issue answers many questions about the story line. Then the last pages gooch you and your back to the beginning of the first issue. The loop story, so now i wait till next issue to see if this loop can be broken. 

MPH Mark Millar

So this comic is intriguing. Every time i finish and issue i yell "NO". they leave you not wanting to wait till next month to see whats going to happen. This is the writer who brought you that comic called Kick-Ass. The artist is Duncan Fegredo and although I'm not a huge fan he does capture some great moments with his illustrations. Please note this copy has a Paul Pope cover... see my previous blog posting for more. In MPH you have a pill you can take that makes the rest of the world slow down or the characters speed up. You can imagine all the things you can do when your moving fast. A little revenge a little bank robbery and a little Robin Hood action, you know steal from the rich and give to the poor. In this issue one of our characters in this story mixes a little cocaine with his MPH pill and ends up having a reverse speed effect and comes to many years ago....then it says To be continued!!! "NO"

steve niles & greg ruth

 The story is called Freaks of the Heartland. It takes place in 1930ish. I enjoyed the story but found the ending a little flat. This brother had saved his deformed brother from death and in the process they planned to round up the other freaks from the neighboring farms. Something in the water made this town give birth to a batch of these strange kids. The towns folks kept it a secret and kept the freaks locked up. It was never fully explained in the story but never the less a rescue mission was planned and they were loaded into a truck and made it to the city line where they all stood on a cliff and looked at the big city lights. NOW if i was to write this story this is how the dork named ricky long would have ended this story. The two normal looking kids would sneak down into the big city to discover it was filled with freaks and they lived happily ever after...... But i didn't write this story Steve Niles did Greg Ruth did an enjoyable job of illustrating this tale.

 

southern bastards

I have been focusing on artists but we know someone has to write the story. Enter Southern Bastards the name and the art make it an instant pick up and buy for me. Deep south visual with rednecks so red the whole page is in a hue of red. This is gonna be a gooder and I eagerly await the next issue to see this tale unfold. Violence, family and small town. "Give me a Miller and a slice of pecan pie."

shawn martinbrough

picked up the graphic novel Batman Evolution vol #1. I know it takes a crew to do the work and i think there was a few folks involved in this story but enjoyable art with amazing colors by Wildstorm FX. it was good yessssssss.

Charles burns takes you to the outer limits of your mind. He illustrates in a very strong black and white. I do get the creeps from his stories. His stories are like a bad drug trip where.... they are just like a bad drug trip. Nuff Said!

guy davis

Guy Davis, a monster illustrator of mass carnage and wreckage, the planet is truly doomed. Will will be taken over by so many scarey things and Guy Davis shows us them. Imagine if everything you looked at under a microscope was full size or even way bigger.... that's what Guy Davis illustrates. You can find him working his marvels in the Bureau.
