One thing that I really like about a good graphic novel series its a continuing adventure that I can look forward to, again and again. I can come back and see how the characters have changed or what new things they’ve learned since the last time I saw them. And that’s one of the things [...]

I’ve been a big fan of Nate Powell’s work since I read “Swallow me Whole” and saw his artwork for “The Silence of Our Friends.” The illustrations that he does for both works blew me away and his storytelling for “Swallow me Whole” was captivating and thought provoking.

Hard Graft looks and sounds different than your normal everyday comic. It’s not often that you see a comic that deals with a character being kidnapped and taken hostage in the middle of a war zone. But that’s just what this series does. And it sounded (and looked) interesting so I gave i [...]
Graveyard of Empires #1
I am always on the look out for new unique takes on the zombie genre, as of late they are rare, but Graveyard of Empires from Image Comics is just that a perfect blending of a intense war drama with the looming doom created by an zombie invasion. In this debut issue, we are introduced to a platoon of Marines serving in the Middle East faced w [...]

Following an Italian rifleman named Pietro Aquasanta who has returned to his childhood home of the Trentino mountain range to find that is no longer as he once remem [...]
