I've been busy with regular life and doing stuff for the awesome folk over at Nine Panel but that doesn't mean I've forgotten my website/blog and its faithful readers (all 10 of you). Therefore, I am proud to announce I've thought-up a new segment!
I was describing various comics I had read or was going to read to my girlfriend in just a sentence or two and realized that it would make a great bit. I get to describe some comics quickly and maybe make a joke or two and you get to realize what a comic's about without having to read it or a lengthy review. Therefore I proudly present my first-ever one sentence summaries of some recent comics!
Prophet #29
Another clone of the original John Prophet ends up getting caught in a huge space-war, which results in his getting swallowed by a living spaceship before he blows-up the whole thing to gorgeous art.
Daredevil: End of Days #1
Brian Bendis continues to show that if there's one thing he loves, it's making Matt Murdock suffer.
Wolverine and The X-Men #17
Doop is awesome, especially when drawn by Micheal Allred.
Justice League #0
Billy Batson gets the power of Shazam and uses it engage in vandalism, save a lady from a mugger but ask her for some cash, and otherwise act the way an actual teenager (and many adults) would if suddenly gifted with incredible powers.
Venom #25
Writer Cullen Bunn does something he doesn't usually do--make a pretty mediocre comic--that raises the question, "Do we really need a demon-possessed Venom?"
Tarot #76
Tarot fights a naked fairy, is exposed to a plant pheromone that caused her to become aroused and touch herself, then becomes naked, and burns the fairy's wings off--all while coming so close to crossing the line into an adults-only comic you wonder how much longer it is until Jim Balent just calls it a day, drops all the supposed plot, and makes a Tarot comic full of nothing but hardcore sex.
AVX #12
Phoenix-powered Cyclops is defeated, a bunch of people become mutants, and Marvel gets to have another event-comic that in the end kind of feels like a waste of all the money you spent on it just to see the big conclusion is that House of M gets reversed.
And there they are!
