Letio is the main character, accompanied by three other amusing characters that embark on an adventurous journey to rescue the princess of the magical kingdom of Krystalia. As some of you might know I rarely read Manga but was surprised how much I enjoyed reading this local publication with all its Manga expressions. Bernard Micallef…
I have been following Jae Lee"s art career for some time. When he started his Hellshock comic in the 90"s with Image comics, I thought that this was another superhero comic from that infamous era, but I was wrong. Although the artwork was captivating, I did not bother to read it at the time. I…
When I initially leafed through the pages of this voluminous collection, I found out that it included other artists apart from the realistic artwork from the main artist David Aja, The other various artists helped the story to get the right setting and mood for each different character and flashbacks through out the comics. Then…
Jeph Loeb has done some interesting work during his run as a comic book writer, but he did receive some negative critique toward his work on this series. I do not concur with this negative critique as I found out the introduction of the Red Hulk quite easy going, interestingly bombastic and funny at times.…
The Luna brothers are amazing storytellers and I recommend all their previous publications. Their simple stories are usually centered around female characters within an extraordinary.

The reason that this graphic novel has been rated for mature readers is due to the depicted harsh violent images and adult situations. These detailed images posed by Danish artist Peter Snejbjerg are not without a reason. John Arcudi"s story explores the human situation in a real world when one is given superhuman abilities. Without…
I always compared Spawn to a demonized Batman, so after I saw the cover of the Haunt, a demonized Spider-man came to my mind. Robert Kirkman wanted to collaborate with Todd McFarlane and with the help of Greg Capullo and Ryan Ottley this is the result. The story focuses on two brothers, a non perfect…
Seems Wolverine is really busy, with being part of a whole group of teams and being revamped every few issues, so here we have another new series. The writing chores are in the capable hands of Jason Aaron which pictures Wolverine investigating a secret agency who is dabbling in the Weapon X experiment. The adequate…
When I was young I actually read some of the old Dan Dare comics so I have some background and the feel of comics on this English character. This is appropriately handled by Garth Ennis and Gary Erskine. Garth Ennis does not try to modernize the main character of this comic, known as the pilot…
Another project entrusted to the capable hands of Ed Brubaker. This time his task is to retell the secret historical origins of the Marvel Universe.
