Destroy All Monsters: A Reckless Book
Destroy All Monsters: A Reckless Bookby Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips; colors by Jacob PhillipsImage Comics, 2021It's 1988, and Ethan Reckless says it's the year he started to feel old, that he'd lost a step. Fortunately he has Anna's help: "You remember her, right...my projectionist-slash-assistant? The girl with blue hair?" As a bonus, we finally get the history of how…See More
Canopus by Dave Chisholm
CanopusDave Chisholm, story & artScout Comics, 2021Helen is an astronaut who comes to marooned on a planet orbiting the star Canopus, 309.8 light years from Earth. She has to get that information from her in-suit navigation system, because she does not remember where she is, how she got there--or even who she is. Suffering from nearly total amnesia, she is the very…See More
"I made the same point about Beatty's art (although a bit less harshly). I don't think it stacks up against any of the prior artists, which is a shame."
"Road to Perdition: The Graphic Novels
Writing I have not previewed first on the board: an overview of the three Road to Perdition graphic novels."
"I really like that book. I found a copy of the original trade at a con a few years back, and I couldn't put it down. It's a terrific story."

UndergroundJeff Parker, writer; Steve Lieber, illustrator; Ron Chan, coloristOni Press, 2021I overlooked this when it was first published in 2010 by Image Comics, so I am glad that Oni Press reprinted it so I could catch up with it. The story stars Wesley Fischer, a Park Ranger and avid caver who is on a one-woman crusade to to stop Stillwater Cave from being turned into…See More
"It's been fun so far, I agree. I know I'll miss Constantine, but things have sure gotten interesting in his absence."
"I got the same message. I just deleted Patrick Akinwutan's account, so problem solved! "
"I rather liked this series, but I'm not sure if I will continue with it monthly. It seems like it would read better in trade. Either way, I do recommend it."
The Stone King
The Stone KingKel McDonald, writer; Tyler Crook, artistComiXology Originals, 2019I have been paying attention to the ComiXology Originals, but had completely overlooked this one. As a fan of Tyler Crook's art on B.P.R.D. and Harrow County I had to check out this fantasy story about a city called Stoneport, which has a vaguely Medieval feel to it. The protagonist Ave is a…See More
"Yes, great news! I missed this earlier, so thanks for the bump, Jeff."
"Good and doubtlessly influential as the reinvention / retcon by Alan Moore was, it led to a lot indeed of continuity baggage. Restoring Swamp Thing to its basics is probably a wise move, both for novelty and for wide appeal at this point."
"Interesting."
"Me neither. I've also never tried mead, although I think there are some local brewers."

Heroes Convention 2009
Posted on June 19, 2009 at 11:26pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
After a late start, spent almost seven hours at the convention. I attended one panel discussion: "The New Power Generation of Comics" with Brian Michael Bendis, Ivan Brandon, Ed Brubaker, Jonathan Hickman, and Matt Fraction. Matt Brady of Newsarama attempted to moderate, with limited success (at one point Fraction turned a question around and basically interviewed Brady instead of the other way around). These writers all know each other, and had a good time tossing the questions around,… Continue
