I found this while looking for something for our Jack Kirby buddy read in The Shallows. There's a lot to pick from when it comes to Kirby, but my eyeballs lit up when I saw this one because I dig kitschy old comics with a supernatural twist to them.
[image]
I opened this up fully expecting it to be the same schlock I've come to expect (and love) from these kinds of comics. And was kind of floored that they were...shockingly good.
[image]
There were 3 graphic stories and 1 short print story, and all of them were great. My favorite was Maniac, though. It tells the story of a man and his mentally disabled brother, and it completely subverted my expectations. I was thinking it was going to be some Of Mice and Men kind of thing, and was...not.
[image]
The Head of the Family (on the cover) was also very cool, as was the Island of Dr. Moreau feel to The Greatest Horror of Them All.
[image]
Now, is this really a 5 star read? Well, that's going to depend on what you enjoy in a comic, but for me it was great. Highly Recommended....more

Nope. I'm done. This was my last volume of Spawn. The plotting is scatty and there are walls of text all over the place. I can't do this. I thought I could but I can't see this going anywhere tolerable.
[image]
The condensed plot is that Spawn hangs out with the hobos, fights gangs of "nerds and creeps", finds the guy who whacked him & mutilates his face, Angela shows up, and Terry gets threatened. If that sounds interesting, let me assure you it wasn't.
[image]
The art holds up. So, there's that. But the writing just isn't good enough to merit going back and dipping my feet into this nonsense anymore. This is not to say that it's terrible and anyone who loves Spawn is crazy, it just isn't for me....more

And it was everything I thought it would be and more. It was horrible. Horrible to the point that it seemed like I was reading a parody. Except parodies are usually funny and this one just made me kinda sick.
[image]
The characters in this thing. Everyone was this Carrington Dynasty level of faux glamorous that I thought went out in the 80s. The dialogue was...I have no words for what I endured. Well, one word springs to mind. Torture. You don't need thumbscrews or bamboo under the fingernails. You could just play this audiobook and break someone's mind. There's a Madonna/Cheresque character who unironically refers to herself in the 3rd person. YOU READ THAT CORRECTLY.
[image]
You know what? No. Just...no. I don't want to talk about this anymore with anyone but my therapist. However. This isn't my kind of book. And it wasn't something that I ever would have willingly picked out on my own, so take my opinions with a grain of salt if this genre is your jam.
Just kidding. If I had the option to give this less than one star, I would!

[image]
I really feel like (due to my undying love of Keanu) I gave the first volume a fair shake. I was perhaps a bit kinder than I should have been, but in all fairness, there was always a chance it was going...somewhere.
[image]
And it did go somewhere. If by somewhere you mean nowhere. And if nowhere is located beside a toasty dumpster fire. Because this was nonsense. What even happened here? I certainly couldn't tell you for sure. Each issue opens with panels of B hooked up to something with a countdown going on in the background. <--some big experiment!
[image]
B, aka Unute, aka Keanu Reeves is an immortal being who wants to be able to die. As you do if you're immortal. This volume vaguely covers his past loves but in only the most generic sense. Apparently, his curse is that his children are all stillborn. So. No procreation. His goal now is to (wait for it) find his father. Remember his father? The lightning bolt that hit his mother square in the vag?
[image]
Well, we're going to find him. There's a shady scientist/archaeologist who is up to some nefarious deeds, and even with all of B's thousands of years of experience, it seems as though he doesn't realize he's hitched his tent to a fairly obvious villain. Or maybe he just doesn't care? Anyway.
[image]
The climax to this panel by panel countdown was (to me) a bit underwhelming. (view spoiler)[It turns out he's being squished. Compressed in a box underground and the scientists are monitoring him with all the little electrodes attached to him. He...explodes?
[image]
And then travels back in time to make first contact. <--whatever that means (hide spoiler)] Make no mistake, I want to like this. Desperately. I love all things Keanu. <--yes, even now, godhelpme. Thing is, there just isn't really much payoff for this volume, and after the last volume not having much payoff, I was really hoping for more. Stuff happened, but it wasn't meaty stuff. Feels like they're throwing plots on the page to see what sticks. And not much is sticking. But maybe it doesn't have to in order to be fun?
[image]
I'll read the next one because OF COURSE I WILL. I'm not some fair-weather fan! When, as a young woman, I watched Much Ado About Nothing, it certainly wasn't to see Kenneth Brannagh on the big screen. I'm in it for the long haul, baby. Here's hoping the next one is better....more

Ok. Well, kinda. I'm goinA medical/horror/thriller about evil lab rats that terrorize an entire town full of DUPLICATES. What the hell, you ask?
[image]
Ok. Well, kinda. I'm going to be honest, everything about this reads like one of those made for tv movies. A beautiful young wife is depressed and has been disconnected from life ever since her brother and son disappeared on a camping trip about a year ago. Her handsome broad-shouldered husband struggles to hold their family together and still be there for their little girl. BUT THEN! They run into her brother in a hotel lobby and he acts like he doesn't know who they are.
[image]
Meanwhile. In a seemingly unconnected event, a doctor decides he's had enough and leaves the shady company he's working for, only to be ambushed and thrown off a balcony to his DOOM!
[image]
But wait, there's more. Because this is a love story. See, when the couple decides to track down her brother for answers as to what happened to their little boy, they become embroiled in a secret experiment that involves (view spoiler)[downloading dead folk's brains and swapping them into a living body, seemingly overwriting that person's brain. OR DOES IT?
[image]
(hide spoiler)] Can true love survive? Well, in this sort of fantasyland it certainly has a good chance!
"She was five feet ten with a sleek, model’s figure: perky firm breasts, a waist so narrow her husband could put his hands around it, and long, shapely legs."
Ok, Neiderman. You're trying to tell me a woman who has given birth not just once but twice, still has a waist that narrow? HOW BIG ARE HIS FUCKING HANDS, SIR?
[image]
Oh! And this book has the honor of having the most unintentionally hilarious masturbation scenes I've ever read in a book. The evil scientist gets turrrrrned on by listening to the recordings of what's happening in her test subject's house and...
" In her erotic imaginings, the tape recorder had suddenly become a penis. She squeezed her eyes shut, but that only intensified the image and the sensation. Reluctantly, she began to surrender again, only this time she brought the tape recorder to her lips and kissed the smooth edge softly."
[image]
Another thing that made me laugh was Neiderman's obsession with this dessert in the book called Better Than Sex. Like, he could not stop referencing it. As though it was the most risque thing he'd ever heard or something!
“Should I put up some coffee?” Elaine asked. “Oh no. Remember, I promised to take you and Melissa for dessert. Better Than Sex,” he added, smiling."
“I’ll order the Better Than Sex,” Elaine said, “but I hope it’s not true.”
"The waitress interrupted them with the platter of Better Than Sex and Melissa’s pie à la mode."
“You might be right,” she said licentiously, “this might be better than sex.”
[image]
Alright. This was one of those books that we found because we read Grady Hendrix's Paperbacks from Hell: The Twisted History of '70s and '80s Horror Fiction. And it was as deliciously campy as I was hoping it would be. Would I recommend this to someone who was trying to find a great medical horror book? No. But if you're in the market for a silly throwback to those horror novels you used to be able to buy on a grocery store spinner? Well, you could do worse.

For some reason, I gI didn't enjoy this as much the second time around. I originally read Paper Girls, Volume 1 & Paper Girls, Volume 2 back in 2017. For some reason, I gave 4 stars to the 2nd volume and I'm not sure why. I'm also not sure why I just sort of stopped after that second volume. But some of my Shallow friends decided to buddy read these what with the resurgence of interest in the comics now that a tv show that is supposed to drop. So here I am in an attempt to fit in with the cool kids.
[image]
Now, I don't want to make it sound like I hated it or something. It's ok. And the story has the ability to go either way right now. But a big part of me felt like 10 issues and/or 2 volumes in I should have more of an idea of what's going on. Then I remembered that in Y The Last Man Vaughan ended up stringing me along with tidbits only to shit the bed in the final volume. I'm not sure I trust you anymore, sir.

I've got 2 more of these deluxe editions to go. Right now we've got a story about middle school girls from the 80s that get caught up in some sort of massive time travel adventure. Some of it is cool, some of it is weird, and some of it is just pretentiously annoying. Maybe the giant maggots, clones, and nonsense language start to come together in a coherent way in the next edition - which I haven't read yet, btw. We shall see....more
Ok, so this is the first manga I've ever read. I'm giving it 5 stars because I'm just assuming the translation process made the dialogue sound somewhatOk, so this is the first manga I've ever read. I'm giving it 5 stars because I'm just assuming the translation process made the dialogue sound somewhat simplified. Maybe that's just a thing? I don't know, and more importantly, it wasn't as though it is terribly written or anything, so I'm not knocking anything off for it.
[image]
The story itself was a really nice slow-burn horror that centers around a teenage girl named Kirie, and her boyfriend, Shuichi. These two start to notice that the town and its inhabitants are quietly being driven mad by SPIRALS. Now, that's a really silly premise but Ito pulls it off like a boss.
[image]
Spirals are one of those naturally occurring shapes and are fairly common to see if you're looking for them, and Junji Ito uses that fact to scare the shit out of us. To say the images in this leave quite an impression is an understatement. For me personally, the freakiest story was Mosquitos. Kirie is recovering from injuries in a hospital, and patients all around her are dying. Why? Well, she discovers that something is very wrong with a group of pregnant women who are about to give birth. Nightmare fuel.
[image]
I thoroughly enjoy horror comics, so it was a nice sideways step to slide into horror manga. Not sure I would recommend this to just anyone who was looking to get into manga, though. Whether or not you like body horror will also definitely be a determining factor in your enjoyment level.
[image]
However, if all of that sounds like your jam? Highly Recommend.
I read this as part of a Shallow Buddy Read, partially because I'm trying to branch out in my old age, but mostly because a couple of my kids really love manga and they're always trying to get me to read the stuff.

Not that there's anything wrong with that! Unfortunately for him, that's a harder sell when your dialogue is composed mostly of phrases like Ugghhh, Guhhhh, & Oooghhh. I'm just saying.
[image]
He rambles on for a few paragraphs about how sex is usually the end game, but in The Discipline, it's what's used to get to the end game. Ritualistic sex is all part of the journey, man! Aleister Crowley, Tantric Yoga, Sex Magick! Or something like that. Then he spits out this gem and I laughed and laughed and laughed because I knew I was in for a good time with this book. Our hero. Melissa. Befreckled, bespeckled, bemused. She seems to me like a real woman, small-breasted but big-hearted. Intelligent, gutsy, but with real frailties...
Small-breasted but big-hearted!
[image]
Ok, ok, ok. Just because there's a lot of sex in a book doesn't mean it isn't a great read. If sex moves the plot forward or makes sense in the situation, then by all means...MORE SEX! But this book is not that book. This is the literary version of a sci-fi porno flick. You know how the dialogue is really cheesy and doesn't quite make sense in porno movies? Like, they're just sort of grunting out words that no one would ever say, in a situation that would never arise in real life, all because I suppose you kind of have to have the appearance of a 'story' to go with the cheesy background music. THIS.
[image]
She's a dirty housewife. *titter* And she's sexually frustrated because her millionaire husband is never home so she goes and stares at this painting of a monster fucking a woman. She meets what looks like cliche Eurotrash who tells her he's going to fuck her. He intrigues her FOR NO DISCERNIBLE REASON so she just agrees to start up an affair with him. Except he's creepy. Like, really fucking creepy. He says straight-up serial killer shit to her and takes her to a slaughterhouse for their first 'date'. Then he takes her to a BDSM club, roofies her, and leaves her in the middle of the street stark naked. BUT SHE'S INTRIGUED. AND SO TURNED ON.
[image]
It just gets weirder and less coherent from there. Needless to say, it all revolves around everyone in the story having sex with each other. But the gist is that there are some sort of shape-shifting beings who live in pocket dimensions in different eras of time. You can communicate with them by stabbing yourself in the eye with a special needle or something. These dudes are fighting other shape-shifting beings. They have roofie spit, voices that can get you horny against your will, and can only survive if they take over a human's body by (you guessed it!) having sex with them.
[image]
Then there's a side plot about our small-breasted heroine's white trash sister, Krystal. See, if Tiny Titties doesn't do what the sex monsters want her to do, then they'll go after her sister and use her as their sex puppet instead. AND IF THAT ISN'T A PORN PLOT, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS. I mean, all this story needs is some guy with a huge dick that delivers a pizza. Go home, Milliagan. You're drunk.

And yet, one of my Shallow buddies found this little gem and somehow made it seem like a fun idea to read it with him. So here I am. I was not the only friend harmed by this prank.
[image]
Honestly, I thought it would be worse than it was. The art is slick and bubbly, but the story is so at odds with this childish look that it made it pretty easy for me to swipe through the digital panels. That statement is in NO WAY an endorsement of the comic. I'm just saying it was hard to look away from this trainwreck.
[image]
The gist is that Curt Connors' wife has a massive cancerous tumor on her spine and is undergoing a high-risk surgery that has a very low chance of working. Her cancer is from chemical dumping from a corporation headed by a real sleazeball who is (gasp!) denying all culpability. Connors is suing, and unbeknownst to him is the target of the snake chick who was hired by the above-mentioned corporate sleaze. The stress has Connors turning back and forth into the Lizard and hijinks ensue.
[image]
Except that no matter how quippy Spider-man is, or how innocuous the art is, it's still a story about a man whose wife is dying. Oh, and whose son suddenly gets cancer while they're in the hospital watching the mom die. Very uplifting! Don't hand this to small children!...more

The angry father/son stuff felt familiar, but the cop thing with the vampire spin on it pushed the dynamic far enough away from other things I've read that it made it seem like a very fresh sort of story.

The main thing I couldn't figure out was why John Adams as the head vampire? To me, it seemed kind of random and smelled a bit of that Hamilton musical. But I just assumed there was something pertinent I was missing because, let's face it, I'm usually missing something pertinent. So when I read the author's note at the end and he said he got the idea from Hamilton, I actually laughed out loud. What?! That's so fucking dorky! But it's whatever. I can feel the Hamilton fans swarming me now...
[image]
I'm on the fence about this one. I liked all the characters minus the John Adams musical bullshit. I have the second volume, so we'll see how it goes from here.

The gist is that our story follows a man who works for his family's company. The Company of Monsters. <--get it? His family is loaded, but that doesn't mean he isn't just another downtrodden cog in the machine, complete with a girlfriend (<--also works for the same company) who henpecks him to death. His quite obviously sleazy uncle, who practically oozes corporate greed from his elderly pores, has pulled him into his scheme to translate ancient texts under a veil of complete secrecy.
[image]
What's in those texts and why the secrecy? His uncle is trying to resurrect Dracula in a convoluted scheme to use his immortality and power to...take over another company? Now, that part? I'll freely admit it was a touch wonky. There are lots of ways to plot a corporate takeover or hide financial problems, and all of them are easier than translating old spells or raising a famous vampire from his grave. I'm just saying.
[image]
But it was different. And the characters and plot were cool enough that I gave it a pass and just decided to go with the wacky flow of things. Worth it! I had fun, and can't wait to see what volume two has in store for me. Recommended for fans of monster comics.

The whole thing with the Red Mother figure needed more work. Just...something to make it stick to your ribs. And the creepy demon thing needed a better explanation as to what it was in relation to this evil goddess. I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll just say it needed a bit of a spit shine on that ending.
[image]
Having said that this isn't a bad pick for a Halloween read, and I'm certainly not sorry I read it. In fact, if nothing else, it put Jeremy Haun on my radar as an author to watch for in the future. Danny Luckert's art was kind of perfect for this setting and I really enjoyed the visuals. Because while everything didn't have that fully fleshed-out feeling to it, there was a lot of spooky goodness packed into these three little volumes. Next time maybe just stick the landing better.

[image]
I don't want to spoil anything but I felt like I was given satisfactory answers to the questions the story posed, and things were actually wrapped up by the last page. So many comics in this genre just sort of do this fade to black thing towards the conclusion, because (I guess) they want to keep things vague or maybe the author didn't actually have anything other than a hazy idea how they wanted things to end. At any rate, it makes me appreciate stories like this one all the more.
[image]
Having said that, it could have used one more volume to really dig into some of the characters' stories a bit more. Maybe Simone will revisit this someday and give us another look at what Astrid & Co. are up to now. Still. I'm happy with the 3 volumes we got.

It kind of feels like Kirkman's Outcast in that there's something evil and alien (demonic?) invading our world and sometimes our bodies. But it has far better art.
[image]
You don't get a clear picture of what's happening, but it's ok. It has that good vs evil feel, so I think there's enough here to keep most people interested.

I'll try to give you the gist of it, but be warned this is Jonathan Hickman at his finest, so it wasn't until the last issue that any of it started to somewhat coalesce into something other than gibberish.
[image]
Old money families with names you'll recognize have somehow bargained with something for wealth and power. All of this is represented in the global stock market and their ties to it. Again, the details are only alluded to and nothing is explained. The bargain has been passed down through the generations which had led to what seems like a very incestuous family tree for these folks.
[image]
There's a whole bunch of diagrams and walls of text to help you dissect what's going on. Because it's Hickman. So of course there is. You get to read various letters and diary entries to explain some of the past stuff, but my eyes started to cross after a while, and I'm sure I missed out on the point of a lot of it as it faded into the roar of white noise. There's some sort of deadly game of musical chairs (one of four seats), wherein they each take turns at being in a position to die as a sacrifice if the market crashes. <--I THINK.
[image]
Anyway. The story is kicked off by a death that shouldn't have happened. There's a detective whose nana practiced Voodoo, so when he was given the case he threw some bones down and did that sage nod thing that lets us know that he knows somethings up. I liked him. His character was the only thing that held my interest on the page for most of the comic.
[image]
Or it was until the twin sister of the dead man pops up and starts futzing around with the way things are supposed to work in these families. She looks ready to maybe burn it all down? I'm intrigued. I honestly didn't think I'd be going on to the next volume but the last issue made me think that this might be going somewhere.
[image]
On a funny side note, Jonathan has once again made up a new language out of symbols. Both Alex and I agreed that this one looks better than the one the Builders had in Avengers and the Krakoan stuff in X-Men. On a funnier side note, he has also once again invented a strange race of chalk white people to be in his comic.
[image]
The art is fabulous, and maybe the saving grace of the first half of the comic when words weren't really making sense.
On to volume 2!

But the real problem for me isn't that some of this is a rip-off of other characters and storylines. It was that I wasn't all that interested in what was happening to the vast majority of it because I was only seeing snippets. The story jumps back and forth between individuals and different teams, I'm assuming to keep us on the edge of our seats, but it really didn't work for me. This isn't bad, and there were certain stories that caught my attention more than others, but in the end, I think this is where I part ways with the Dept. of Monsterology comics....more
