This is a great book indeed.It really shows a side to comics that alot of people dont see everyday in their local stores and tv shows.Only thing I found dissapointing was the fact that the book was not long enough.Im the kind of person where when I start to get lost into the story,I cant get enough and need more.Im sure alot of people would agree with me when I say that.Overall a definite must have.

If you have been following Grant Morrison's run on the Doom Patrol you have certain expectations. This book is good, but not great and feels transitional. Crawling from the Wreckage, The Painting that Ate Paris, and Down Paradise Way are better books. I will say this is a step up from the last collection, Musclebound, as the Pentagon and Flex Mentallo stories are really kind of overrated.

On to the Magic Bus...

Issues 51 & 52 are dealing with the new Brotherhood of Dada, but the old Brotherhood was better in The Painting that Ate Paris. The whole Mr. Nobody for president story is ok, but I was a little unsatisfied.

Doom Patrol 53 is a tribute to Jack Kirby. Weird issue, I love Jack Kirby but this issue kind of left me wanting a more traditional Doom Patrol ... Read More

Books : Batman the Killing Joke - First Edition
This is one of those core Batman titles.You get to see The Joker before the accident that turned his skin white,his lips red and his hair green.He was a comedian that turned into a criminal and fell into a vat of chemicals at a playing card factory. This title came out a year and 4 months before the original Batman movie premiered in 1989. It was a backstory or preview to the movie.The origin story in this comic was used in the film except for the comedian part and the chemical plant was called Axis Chemicals. But this story gives you a idea of just how mentally cracked the Joker is.Killing to him is funny and he makes it so with deadly pranks.Some DC fans think that the Joker isn't crazy at all and that it is a persona or mask that he puts on.He gets locked up in Arkham for a while and then he walks out ...

Now I love Batman, and the fact that I worship anything Batman is what got this thing the two stars. I even loved the first Black and White. I thought it was art and fascinating. But oh man is this a huge let down. The stories are so boring I could barely force myself to read it and the art is extremely unimpressive. This isn't just a waste of money, it's a waste of your time. Sorry Batman, you failed me here.

For those of us who are self-taught artists and look to the work of other artists for inspiration and guidance, Brian Bolland's work is, in a word, intimidating. One of the deans of comic book artists working today, Bolland's clear, clear, virtuoso style is one of the most recognizable on the comics page, and looking at his work - deceptively simple - you can't help but ask yourself "How did he do that?" The Art of Brian Bolland showcases Bolland's work and will no doubt have you asking the same question.

Published by Image Comics - which has produced a number of excellent "art of..." books over the past few years - The Art of Brian Bolland is a retrospective of Bolland's career thus far, starting with his childhood drawings and continuing to the present day. There is a lot of text in this book discussing ... Read More

Books : Judge Dredd: Featuring Judge Death (Judge Dredd)
This happens to be a landmark entry in the Judge Dredd series, often reprinted as a newsagent quick money spinning comic; even here in the "2000AD Hardcover Collector's Editions", half of this black and white graphic novel is dedicated to the late seventies early eighties character of Judge Dredd, known best for his role in "2000 AD" graphic comic series, the biggest selling science-fiction comic in the UK, even though the concept is wholly American (John Wagner built Judge Dredd as an anti-commie future cop) brought to British readers a new character that is the longest surviving individual of the 2000 AD series, no one will even mention the movie of the same name (Dredd took off his helmet, duh!) in a room with fans because YOU WILL BE JUDGED!, here is Mega-City One, we get some of the best Judge Death stories, the classic ...
