Batman: Hush, Vol. 2 33 reviews Jeph Loeb, Jim Lee
DC Comics, 2004
Captivating
+ A great story an excellent art + volume two
I actually purched this while in Prague, Czech Republic. No I can't read Czech, but I like to pic up comics in other languages. Some like postcards, I like comics. Well after just going through the artwork, I was determined to get the English version and read what was going on. The storyline is ...

Fables Vol. 1: Legends in Exile 50 reviews Bill Willingham
Vertigo, 2002
Best comic book series ever?
+ Off to a Great Start + Very Good But Not Spectacular Start
When it comes to comic book geeks we think something like Grant Morrison's run on Doom Patrol is a masterpiece but what are true masterpieces are titles that transcend the hobby to appeal to people other than aficionados of the hobby. A testament to the series is that it transcends the hobby to ...

Batman: Contagion 10 reviews Chuck Dixon, Doug Moench, ...
DC Comics, 1996
Sorry, I have to nitpick...
+ A good storyline similar to "No Man's Land"
Well, first I have to start by saying that this is one of my favorite Batman storylines ever. I love the number of characters it brings together, including a few unexpected alliances. But maybe it's because I like it so much that I feel the need to do a little nitpicking. Okay, so here's this ...

Family Values (Sin City, Book 5: Second Edition) 31 reviews Frank Miller
Dark Horse, 2005
Underrated Gem.
Frank Miller's Sin City will always stand as the most full-steam, no-holds-barred series out there. Book 5 of 7, Family Values is a tale of justice. Miller's stories of Basin city always deliver, with hardcore violence and gritty dialogue. Don't get me wrong Family Values isn't as nearly as The ...
