Read more…I have been calling for this story to be collected for some time now, and I’ve been waiting to read the ending for nearly 40 years! When I was a kid, I was able to read only four issues of the eleven (one issue had two stories): parts 1, 2, 4 and 6.
Read more…So DC is putting out all of these big poster prints now. I like some of them, but some aren't nearly to my taste. Here's one I do love, though. It reminds me of a Criterion DVD cover on a movie based on Jonah Hex. I hope that one day someone will act
