Issue #35 really achieved the feeling of a massive interstellar war going on, thanks in no small part to the different artists and the multiple Johns across the galaxy. I feel like it has finally hit...

Oh my! Excited for this. I haven't read much Steve Ditko but I love his radical style. I really like these story/artist collections Dark Horse is putting out.

CREEPY PRESENTS STEVE DITKO HC...

Well, this is completely unexpected. Nice to see some Boulet in print in English.

Dark Horse Solicits May 2013 with new Corben.
Another gorgeous Corben cover for Creepy #12 in May which also includes a new short story from him. New terror from legendary artist Richard Corben...

I definitely prefer print, especially for lavish print production and quality from publishers like Fantagraphics. I picked up a Marvel floppy months ago, and was shocked at the abysmal paper quality...

Fiffe has hit the ground running with Copra. This is such an ambitious project and it certainly deserves more attention.

I'm down for horror when it's a mini-series like this. I like what the reviews have said so far. I think I'll give this a chance next time I stop by the LCS.

I feel like I should like this series, only because I see it posted by lots of individuals I admire.
However, the art feels very wonky and "flat" to me, and the colors stand out too much (not in a...

The juxtaposition of my comments was odd. I was referring to "7 Against Chaos" being published through DC.
And yes, I picked up the excellent "3 Uneasy Pieces" one-shot. I always enjoy Concrete.

I just heard about this like last week and was looking for information. Glad to hear it's definitely coming out now. These two guys together is bound to be amazing. I can't wait.
Chadwick said he's...

Hah, yes. I assume it's not a problem because Urasawa's manga isn't licensed.

I'm always a fan of these Vertigo one-shots. They fulfill my desire for short story anthologies. And Peter Milligan is the icing on the cake for me.

I actually love anthologies... of short stories. I'm not too fond of serial anthologies which include ongoing series. With short story anthologies, if I don't like like one story, I don't have to...

Exactly. That's the reason I don't follow it. I would love to read Megazine and 2000AD but being weekly they get expensive. I actually downloaded a digital issue but I just can't stand reading comics...

I think you mean Fantagor? Thanks for mentioning those; I'm not very familiar with much of it.

Agreed. His colors always blow me away. And although Ragemoor was in B&W, I think the gray tones...

Thoughts on Corben? Favorite works?

I was pleasantly surprised by Corben's recent one-shot adaptation of Poe's "The Conqueror Worm." The art was astounding, the story was well-paced and...

Thirding Paul Chadwick's Concrete.
XIII by Jean Van Hamme (Cinebook). Very serious, mature, political thriller. It's really good and keeps you asking questions and wanting to know more.
2001...

So I just read it and my reaction is lukewarm. I really wanted to like it but I wasn't feeling it. Maybe it's because it's the first issue and it's supposed to be setting up the premise for readers...

Well, color me impressed. This could be a worthy take on the original comic.

My copy of Michel Fiffe's Copra is on its way in right now; I'm so excited to read it.
Yeah, the amount of work Deforge puts out is insane. I have yet to pick up any hard copies of his work but I...

I've read a couple Kramer's books (6 and 8). I really really wanted to like them; the indie anthology concept is right up my alley. The "so-bad-it's-good bizarre abstract anti-comic" thing is very...

Any recommendations for horror-themed anthologies like Tales From the Crypt and Creepy/Eerie? I always prefer my horror in short stories.

I've heard of Bela Lugosi's Tales From the Grave and...

Ho boy, I see Enrique Alcatena's work on X-Man is being collected! Now I just need Jon J. Muth and J.M. DeMatteis' run on Silver Surfer to be collected.

I downloaded that and figured it was just from an illegal scan of the comics. I can't believe those are official. Anyway, I always prefer a hard copy to reading off a monitor. Thanks for pointing...

What are your favorite comics from Marvel that aren't collected in trades?

For me, it has to be Silver Surfer v3 (1987). The first 18 issues are in the Essential Silver Surfer volume 2 but you...
