Spooked Volume 12 reviews
Antony Johnston, Ross Campbell

Oni Press, 2004

Great story & art. It's worth cover price...a steal at Amazon's discount.

+ Spooky thriller!

This story, about a girl who finds herself talking to dead people, started off with a concept that everyone seems to have jumped on. Sixth Sense Meets "insert any other concept here". Luckily for us, Antony didn't stick with the "Ghost Whisperer" angle. I highly recommend this overlooked indy ...
  
  











  



  
Hectic Planet, Volume One : Dim Future2 reviews
Evan Dorkin

SLG Publishing, 1998

Not the best volume, but still fun.

Yikes! The [...] is a little hard on this book, in my opinion. While it's definitely not as funny or as character-driven as the later volumes, it's still worth reading if you're a Dorkin fan. The second half picks up considerably, and while it's probably not strictly necessary in order to ...

Honour Among Punks : The Complete Baker Street Graphic Novel3 reviews

IBooks, 2003

The Game Is Afoot!

+ A forgotten classic
+ early best of guy davis

This is a grand re-telling of the seemingly ageless story of Holmes and Watson, this time from a punk perspective. The artwork is edgy (yeah, I know; but it is) and the story a grand piece of work. Sherlockians everywhere muyst buy this, but be warned: it ain't your father's Holmes.
