I haven’t read anything else by him yet, but I’m definitely going to look into it more. And everyone says that about The Walking Dead. I feel like I might like the comics more than the TV show at this point (I watched the pilot but that’s it) just cause with comics you sometimes feel more involved with the process of the storytelling where as with tv it’s sometimes like they’re just throwing information and entertainment at you in order to get ratings or get renewed for another season.
But I also started reading Saga, which is Brian K Vaughn’s new series. It’s really different than I would have expected, but once I realized that the main character is a lot like Archer (so it’s best to read all his lines in his voice) I was hooked.
I’ve never been a huge comic guy, but they’re starting to grow on me.

I really enjoyed the first 2 books of this comic series but haven’t finished it yet. There were parts in the comic that were actually shocking. It rarely happens in comic form because my eyes always seem to stray ahead and ruin any surprise. The only other instance was Walking Dead when I literally let out “WHOA”‘s and “WHAT”‘s.

Have you read any other Joe Hill books? I read Horns and Heart-Shaped Box and both were very good.

I agree with Scott Pilgrim and Kick-Ass being underrated. Dustin would DEFINITELY agree that Kick-Ass is underrated since he loves that film. I’m excited for Kick-Ass 2. The comic was fantastic and super gory so I know the movie will be good.

This looks like an awesome comic book, I’ll have to check it out some time.
The artwork is eye-popping and the artist co-opted Waterson flawlessly in that one bit.
Scott Pilgrim (one of my personal faves) and Kick-Ass (not the biggest fan) were most certainly under appreciated; the former being in theaters for maybe two weeks at best.
