Shark-Man

Well, I Just Checked A Little Book From image Comics Called Shark-Man. My Immediate Reaction Is That The Art By Steve Pugh, Who Also Did The Scripting, Lettering, And Cover On The Issue I Picked Up (#2), Is Beautiful. Its Almost A Painted/Photorealistic Style. Very Nice. Anyway, The Setting Is Cool. Its This City Called New Venice That Was Built As Some Kind Of Island Utopia. So, The Landscapes, Or Seascapes Rather, Are All Open And Cool. They Really Went All Out With The Ship Designs. They Look Like Huge Fish Or Something. All The Women Are Beautiful, Even The Sea Witch, The Leader Of The Pirate Gang. The Story In This Issue I Enjoyed A Lot. This Big Wig Builds A Casino Ship And Its Attacked By Pirates. Shark-Man Swoops In At The Last Second And It Leaves You On Kind Of A Cliffhanger. He’s Actually Only Shown Three Times In The Story, Which Says Something For The Development Of Some Of The Other Characters. This Is One I’ll Probably Pick Up In Trade, But It Was A Good Read. Anyway, Until Next Time…

Mighty Avengers

Mark Bagley’s Splash Pages In Mighty Avengers, Particularly In #8 And 9, Are Awesome.
That Guy Is A Phenomenally Talented.
Usually I Think Splash Pages Are Showy And Unnecessary, But I Changed My Mind…
Now, I Think Splash Pages Are Showy And Unnecessary Unless Your Work Is On Par With Bagley.

Walking Dead

So I Picked Up The First Walking Dead Trade On Kyle's Recommendation, As I Mentioned Before. I Read It Today AND It Was OK. I'll Probably Check Some More Of It Out, But It's Just Not Really My Cup Of Tea. Definitely Not Something I'll Be Rushing Out To By All Nine Trades Of And Then Switch To Monthly. Don't Get Me Wrong, I Thought The Story Was Presented Well And The Art Was Awesome. Sorry, Kirkman, But I'm Sticking With Invincible.

eBay

Books A Million

I Just Picked Up A Couple Of Trades At My Not So Local (Translates To Evil) Book Store. I Got The New Warriors - Defiant (4th Series - Volume 1 - 2007) And The Walking Dead - Days Gone Bye (1st Series - Volume 1 - 2007). The Walking Dead I Picked Picked Up On Kyle's Suggestion. We'll See. Any Way, I'll Keep You Posted...
