    I just read the third issue to John Byrne’s The High Ways. I was not a great fan of Byrne’s…

    Pick of the Week – 05.15.2013 – Edgar Allen Poe’s The Fall of the House of Usher #1
    May 16, 2013 12:56 am Corben is 72? Holy Moly. Yeah, his artwork is pretty easily identifiable. I can't remember the first comic I bought that he did, it may have been Den, but have enjoyed his work off and on for years.

    THE HIGH WAYS #4
    May 1, 2013 1:28 am I enjoyed issue #3 the best of the series, actually 1-3. I felt a little let down by the ending too, not that I wouldn't want Byrne to still give another High Way series a go.

    ACTION COMICS #0
    April 16, 2013 1:04 pm Drives me nuts too at times and I find myself thinking, should a comic be that hard to digest? But he's hard to ignore...

    BATMAN #19
    April 16, 2013 12:56 pm That's a great cover and almost looks 3-D. I'm amazed at what artist can do these days. Sounds like an interesting story too. I'd like to read more about some of those lessor known Batman villains.

    In Memoriam: Carmine Infantino (1925-2013)
    April 5, 2013 12:11 am Sad news. I hate to hear about these fine older gentlemen draftsmen pass on. He made his contribution and I'm sure had many fans. RIP.

    Pick of the Week – 04.03.2013 – Indestructible Hulk #6
    April 5, 2013 12:06 am I've been enjoying the series so far. Waid is a good writer, and I think he's somewhat under appreciated, until you think about some of the books he's been on, however, I think that ends with his run on Daredevil and now the Hulk. Of course his current web comics are doing that as well: Thrillbent.com and the others. I need to reread some of those Simonson drawn comics. I think I gave his art short shrift at the time, shame on me (I know).

    STRANGE TALES 2 #3 (OF 3)
    April 1, 2013 10:04 am Good review. I love the cover to this one. I hope I can find this as I've been a long follower of Pekar's American Splendor. I'm sure some of the other stories are nicely told as well.

    STRANGE TALES 2 #2 (OF 3)
    April 1, 2013 10:00 am Nice review. Somehow I missed these comics when they came out. I've always enjoy the indies, moreso than mainstream, and enjoy seeing what an indie creator might come up with from Marvel or DC since most started out reading and was influenced by them. Hopefully I can find a few of these in the back issues.
