Saga – Volume One

The planet of Landfall and its moon, Wreath, are at war.

Daredevil: Volume One

When you think of Marvel’s answer to Batman, you probably automatically think Iron Man.  And why wouldn’t you? Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne are both incredibly intelligent individuals who use their mental ability to compensate for a lack of “super power”. For whatever reason, in my eyes, I always saw Daredevil as Marvel’s answer to…

Bone

Jeff Smith started the Bone series back in 1994 when I was but a meager ten year old. I can vividly remember going to the grocery store with my Mother and begging her to buy me the latest issue of Disney Adventures. Due to my insistent whining, my Mom finally caved and bought it for…

Batman: No Man’s Land Vol. 2

While I enjoyed the second collection, it’s kind of hard to top that Scarecrow story from Volume 1. However, what Volume 2 lacks in story, it makes up for in artwork.

Batman: Mad Love

If you’re a fan of the 90s animated series and haven’t read this collection then what’s wrong with you? Don’t be like me and wait years and years to crack the pages of this glorious book. Contained within this compilation is the headlining, “Mad Love” in which we’re treated to the origin story of Harley…

Parker: The Outfit

Parker had evened the score with the Outfit, or so he thought. After extensive facial reconstruction surgery, Parker is identified by a squealer, outing him to his enemies. Parker realizes that the fight isn’t yet over and he intends to finish it! So, while I did like this book, I wasn’t into it as much…
