Pretty much a must read if you've spent any time on Gothic or Brit Lit.

The Unwritten has wickedly good premise, some biting satire of the publishing industry, and really great cover art. The interior art is solid as well.

One of only three new comics from the past year to stay on my pull list past five issues.

Absolutely marvelous. Read in one sitting on an airplane, and I thought I was nuts to bring this book along.

I could read a whole book of letters from Evidence Goring to his sister.

More good than bad. Retelling of Greek myths set in the East End.
That being said, holy strippers Batman. Maybe I lead a sheltered life, but I've never seen so many naked ladies in a comic book.

Very very very good. Pretty much anything Jeff Lemire writes is engaging and different, so I picked Sweet Tooth from issue one. The story has only gotten better from there, and I've felt like every comic I put on my pull list in 09 has let me down aside from this and a few scant others.

Very bummed upon finishing. Volume 6 renegs on everything I loved about the first volume. It seemed contrived and almost humorless. I think I would have torn the book in half if Wallace said 'Guy' one more time. (That might be a personal pet peeve though.) I appreciated the sight gag of the Memory Cam and any storyline involving Kim. She rocks.

Rated three stars for nostalgia sake.

Absolutely beautiful.

I'd read some years ago that Earth Abides was Stephen King's inspiration for The Stand. Considering the novel follows the collapse of civilization after a virus kills 99% of the American population, inspiration might be an understatement.

I found it to be profoundly moving. I may be in the minority, I've read some very harsh reviews of it. The book was written in 1947 and it shows, both in misogynistic tendencies and one racist episode. Let's call that the Dumbo Outlier and be done with it. The scope of Earth Abides is broad, and there's little in the way of cohesive plot. Less a novel than a memoir of man observing the death and rebirth of society.

so far it has Vikings, which makes it awesome.

Good book, it really made history come alive. It is indeed chock full of Vikings and Alfred the Great pops up as a reoccurring character. He also had Crohn's disease, which is no joke. Poor guy. This is one of those periods in England's history which I love reading about, so I really enjoyed it. But oh, those names! Aefelwulf! Uhtrecht! Ubba!

Artwork was stunning, storyline was just...bad.
