Chris Onstad

Dark Horse Comics, 2008

Beef done good
Achewood is the greatest advance in comic art since "Calvin and Hobbes", and this is Onstad's first book with a major publisher. For the uninitiated it's a good introduction; for the devoted fan it's essential. I'm making Dinosaur Potato Chuds for dinner tonight.

Buffy and the Slayer-legion travel to Tokyo in order to learn more about their dangerous new foes, as ...

Hellboy, Vol. 8: Darkness Calls

Mike Mignola, Duncan Fegredo, ...

Dark Horse Comics, 2008

Brilliant as always
For those of you who are worried because Mignola is no longer drawing Hellboy, don't be. I was worried too, but this Fegredo guy is great. He apes Mignola's dramatic shading style while adding more detail and nuance to the character designs. If anything, I'd say the ...

Star Wars Omnibus: Tales of the Jedi, Vol. 1

Various

Dark Horse Comics, 2007

Excellent graphic novel
Omnibus Tales of the Jedi is really my first experience with the Star Wars graphic novels published by Dark Horse. I must say that the experience was a pleasure. The book was entertaining and just has a great look about it. This one collects the earliest known tales ...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight, Volume 1: The Long Way Home

Joss Whedon, Andy Owens

Dark Horse Comics, 2007

A void filled
Being a buffy and angel fan, I was hestitant to actually start reading these. I read the other reviews, and noticed that the comics were written by the man himself. I also read the astonishing X-Men, written by Whedon, and knew he had a voice for comics. The only ...

A Great Story... The Game is Based On

Help Is on the Way: A Collection of Basic Instructions

Scott Meyer

Dark Horse Comics, 2008

Great stuff
The Basic Instructions comic strips have been my best discovery since the genius of Scott Adams/Dilbert. Scott Meyer provides a range of cartoons to help with a range of everyday situations from "How to disguise a yawn" to "How to lie to a child" - they work because ...

The Perry Bible Fellowship: The Trial of Colonel Sweeto and Other Stories

Nicholas Gurewitch

Dark Horse Comics, 2007

Indiana Jones Adventures Volume 1 (Indiana Jones Adventures)

Philip Gelatt, Rick Lacy

Dark Horse Comics, 2008

Highly Entertaining Indy Comic
I really enjoyed this comic, and hope there are more to come. The storyline is kid friendly, with a line or two geared toward adults (would go over the kid's heads). The illustrations and back and forth between characters embodies the feel of the Indy movies ...

Drawing Down the Moon: The Art of Charles Vess
Charles Vess

Dark Horse Comics, 2008

Verdant fairy forests. Whispering mountains. The fallen towers of ancient kings. Spirit-filled lakes. The distant strains of elven bards. For over thirty years, the fantasy art of Charles Vess has been acclaimed worldwide, his rich palette, striking compositions, and lavish detail second-to-none in the field. Vess has been the illustrator of ...

Serenity Better Days Issue #1 - #3 Complete Set

Joss Whedon

Dark Horse Comics, 2008

A must for Firefly fans!
It takes all three copies to make one episode, and the ending comes across as rushed as if little thought was given to its completion. We All Know that Josh W. can do Better.
