Actor Thomas Jane talks about things that go bump in the night and his venture into comics at RAW Studios. Which do you think is scarier? Plus, more interiors from "APF3000."

I'll definitely check out the first issue. Not sure about the concept, but I love the art I've seen from Don thus far. If it catches my fancy, I'll stick with it for the full four issues.

Now, BAD PLANET -- THAT I'm looking forward to.

We wrap up our look at Alien Pig Farm 3000 by talking with Todd Farmer and Don Marquez, including a huge gallery of art.

I read the first look of the issue. When I saw the cover I thought it was totally retarded, but the manager told me to just try it out and I thought it was really awesome.

I usually like wacky, fun, little indie comic books. I'll be checking this one out. :)

ugh...so much potential. But just an over-the-top amateurish comic that has great ideas but idiotic dialogue and is very stereotypical. The cover for the next one looks awesome, but....

Has this book been in the shops yet?

Like any first issue nowadays I would have liked some more stuff to actually happen but it was cute enough. I'll agree it was a bit sterotypical but it made me laugh a couple times. Hopefully there will be some actual plot next issue.

Best title of a comic in a loooong time.:D

[keithtalent]

I enjoyed this. Wasn't the point that it was a parody of media representation of hill-billies/red-necks/whatever. And also a parody of pulp sci-fi. Consequently the complaints that it was guilty of stereotyping fall short of the mark, it was intended to stereotype but in an over the top and outrageous way.

Have to agree with the comment about it being the best title. This was a main factor in picking it up for me. Artwork was great, story was not groundbreaking but it amused my small brain.

I agree. I am buying it on the title alone. ;)
