I am woman, hear me roar! Except in a movie theater. That’s just rude.

Off the Shelf — Batman Vol. 6: Graveyard Shift
Nutshell: A great series of stand-alone stories that are hamstringed by a strange shuffle of continuity, and my inability to connect issues with stories. Could be my bad, but this TPB doesn’t make it easy either. N00bs, be prepared to … Continue reading

Off the Shelf — Harley Quinn Volume 2: Power Outage
Nutshell: I said I’d happily read 200 pages of Harley Quinn. DC delivered. I’m still happy. Conner and Palmiotti deliver the goofy goods, keeping this series from a sophomore slump by pushing the envelope and then ripping it apart. Gorgeous … Continue reading

Off the Shelf — Outcast Volume 1: A Darkness Surrounds Him
Nutshell: If you think Robert Kirkman does a great job with characters and storytelling in The Walking Dead, Outcast will top those expectations. Perhaps a little bit too much string spooled out in the telling, but that could be because … Continue reading

Off the Shelf — Trees, Volume 1: In Shadow
Nutshell: The creator of Transmetropolitan, Global Frequency, and so many other instant-classics has dropped another on our doorstep. There’s love, human sexuality, nature, evolution, on a world stage. And unseen aliens that don’t give a crap about us and our … Continue reading

Off the shelf — Mind the Gap Vol. 1: Intimate Strangers
Nutshell: Mind the Gap is the kind of damn-near perfect comic series that makes you want to stop random people on the street and shout “read this! READ THIS!” But orange jumpsuits and straight jackets aren’t my kind of fashion … Continue reading
Off the Shelf — Battlestar Galactica Volume 2: The Adama Gambit
Nutshell: It’s great to see the classic gang together again! But I wish the way the characters think would also be brought to the 21st century. Athena is still “the little woman”, and that should be embarrassing to modern writers. … Continue reading
Off the Shelf — Hack/Slash: Son of Samhain
Nutshell: It’s great to see Cassie Hack back in action, and her new crew of creators have done a good job throwing her into the ol’ mix. If you’re looking for Slashers, you’ll be disappointed, but if monsters are your … Continue reading
Off the Shelf — Godzilla: Cataclysm
Nutshell: Cataclysm is old-school Kaiju meets Young Turk apocalyptic fiction. And it totally works. This is the kind of comic book that screams for a big-ass tablet, so you can enjoy all the full-page awesome at once. Or, you can … Continue reading

Off the Shelf — Harley Quinn Volume 1: Hot in the City
Nutshell: Hot in the City is a must for Quinn fans, even though this TPB it isn’t a completist’s dream. Gorgeous drink-it-all-in art, 4th-wall busting at it’s most wack-a-doo, and Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner’s tongue-in-cheek storytelling gets you one … Continue reading

I think I’ll start with the Sunday thing from now on. Gives me more time to hit the Wednesday new releases. She said, like she has a plan…. The Other Dead #1: (IDW) Damn. I love me some zombies, but … Continue reading
