I liked this book for the story but the art is why I'm only giving it 4 stars. Well I gotta be honest I never did like Goran Parlov's rendition of the in Punisher max vol 6 nor did I like Barracuda but in this story he actually becomes a pretty damned good villian and the first one since nicky cavella to get under franks skin and, you'll find out why at the end of the first part of this arc which ...             Son of Superman8 reviews Howard Chaykin, David Tischman DC Comics, 2000 Ultra Good book The book "Son of Superman" was one of the most awesomest books I have ever read.

Image Comics, 2008 THIS is how you make an "Omnibus"! Image puts Marvel and DC to shame with this definitive edition of one of the most distinctive and memorable comics of the 80s, by one of the most creative (and underappreciated) writer/artists in the field. This is a professional-quality hardbound edition that will remain definitive for years to come. This volume features a real (gasp!) SEWN BINDING, high-quality, matte-finish paper, a ...             Wolverine: The Death Of Wolverine Premiere HC (Wolverine)2 reviews Marc Guggenheim, Jason Aaron Marvel Comics, 2008 Interesting to a point Wolverine dead? Marvel would never kill off one of their most iconic characters would they? On second thought, don't answer that. All kidding aside, The Death of Wolverine isn't exactly what it sounds like it is, but instead finds Logan close to meeting his maker. Written by Marc Guggenheim (The Flash, Blade), this storyarc flirts with the idea of what exactly happens to Logan's soul if and ...             The Stars My Destination: The Graphic Story Adaptation222 reviews Howard Chaykin, Byron Preiss, ... Epic Comics, 1994 Best sci fi I've been reading sci fi for years yet I was like a blind man until I read Tiger Tiger aka The star's my destination by Alfred Bester. He manages to fit so much in a few pages. It's fast paced and action packed, yet slow enough for you to catch every gem, which you will find in every single line. It forces you to contemplate life, the universe, and everything and will make you laugh while doing ...             Blade Vol. 1: Undead Again (Marvel Comics)2 reviews Marc Guggenheim Marvel Comics, 2007 Don't let the cover art influence you. This is one of the best stories I've read featuring the character Blade, however it lacks the action and adventure most people look for when thinking about a vampire hunter. The cover art is amazing, however it does not follow through with the entire book. Overall it's a good book, but there are greater books out there. But I would say it's a must have for Blade fans that enjoy a plot and well ...             Punisher War Journal #18 Matt Fraction, 2008 Jigsaw, Part 1 of 6.             American Flagg (1983 First) 1-50, 25-different, 1984 Revolution!

Marvel Comics, 2008 An average Wolverine story A mystical story about the state of Wolverine's soul and how he is able to rejoin his body everytime it regenerates.

It's different I'll give them that.             Michael Chabon Presents. . .The Amazing Adventures of the Escapist, Volume 19 reviews Michael Chabon, Glen David Gold, ... Dark Horse, 2004 Live the story through the comics After reading Michael Chabon's "The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay," I was disheartened to realize that comic described in the book might never be actualized, and that the descriptions and accounts of the comics in general were fantasized. However, when I learned that Dark Horse Comics was planning on releasing "The Amazing Adventures of the Escapist, Volume 1" I jumped at the ...             The Chronicles Of Conan Volume 11: The Dance Of The Skull And Other Stories (Chronicles of Conan (Graphic ...17 reviews Roy Thomas, John Buscema, ...

If you are looking for something with humorous adventure and maybe a dash of steampunk, this is a good choice. It is akin to the old TV show Wild Wild West, though with Barnum (and his circus) serving Cleveland rather than West serving Grant. The artwork is great and very much compliments the story. As there is only a smidge of nudity, I am not sure why this ran in the ...             Fafhrd And The Gray Mouser (Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser)3 reviews Howard Chaykin, Mike Mignola Dark Horse, 2007 Nearly perfect adaptations of Leiber's Classic Tales There are two undisputed godfathers of Swords & Sorcery fiction. One is Robert E. Howard, creator of Conan, King Kill, Bran Mak Morn, and Solomon Kane; and the other is Fritz Leiber who created the duo of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser. It was, in fact, Leiber himself who coined the term "Swords & Sorcery."
