American Vampire Vol. 1 I’ll start this off by saying that I fully expected to hate this.. or at least be bored by it. Despite the fact that Scott Snyder is highly regarded in the comic industry at the moment – what with kicking all kinds of ass with the recent Batman reboot/relaunch/whatever – and…
Chris F. Holm’s Dead Harvest Sam is a collector. A collector of souls! You see, Sam’s wife had contracted a strain of TB and in a moment of desperation, Sam accepted a sketchy employment opportunity from a gentleman named Dumas. While Dumas promised a complete recovery on the part of Sam’s wife, he remained closed…
Y: The Last Man Vol. 8 I was beginning to worry after finishing the last book that the story was starting to decline. Believe me, I was very nervous!Vaughan appears to indicate that some time has passed since the last collection. It’s easy to tell in the fact that at the very least, everyone has…

Also, Yorick meets another woman who shares the same name as his missing girlfriend,…
Y: The Last Man Vol. 4 As Yorick, 355 and Dr. Mann continue on their trip to California, Vol. 4 has the most character development and immediate danger yet! Vaughn totally takes it in a completely chaotic direction; to quote one of my favorite hockey play-by-play men, Bob Cole, “Everything is happening!”Yorick really steps it up…
Y: The Last Man Vol 3. In this installment, Vaughn pushes a subplot that has slowly been building since the beginning involving Israeli militant soldiers. Their eventual plan is to kidnap him and repopulate the homeland becoming the only nation on earth with a male population. The only thing I didn’t care for was the…
