So, the first two parts of this massive project I am undertaking is up for your enjoyment — I hope you’ll all support me and leave me loads of comments to let me know what you think. I have something like a hundred and sixty characters to introduce you to and each story will be [...]
Batman and reinvention go together like a horse and carriage or whatever other pair of inseparable ideas you wish to use, hmm, maybe Batman and Robin. I said something similar earlier with works about the character that were operating under the same kind of mission statement: to reimagine the world of Gotham’s Dark Knight.
Anyway this [...]
This set of two works collected back-to-back presents two very different types of work which can be read in one sitting and work the palate to a nice effect.
They are both lean just because of the dictates of the format that they were originally produced in and the number of pages that allows the writer [...]
The exploration of violence in these two volumes takes many twists and turns. The first volume struck me as being more grounded but both of them have a resonant emotional core that connects with the reader on a very visceral level.
To say that something is filmic is over-used and perhaps misguided when it comes to [...]
This was the perfect book for someone like me to read — damn, I got every reference in it. Is that something to be worried about? Well, it would be if I were one of the main characters in the book because that is what seemingly marks you out for death at the hands of [...]
Re-imaginings and Batman go hand in hand it seems, as just glancing downwards through the pages of this blog might indicate. This isn’t so much a character overhaul more a significance overhaul by placing Batman within a long line of heroes — a lineage that, given that the titular chalice is the Holy Grail, I [...]

In places where I have been hanging out in a virtual capacity there has been much discussion of the design of book covers and how this affects the sales but more importantly the perception of the work contained therein. It should be [...]
Click the above link to go and read the lovely little piece of flash fiction that I have just had published on this great site. Once you get there hang around and check out the other work. This site has the big brass balls to publish work that other so-called edgy magazines are just to [...]
This book has wonderful art and a really involving story. You look at the cover and you might be in danger as writing it off as being some emo bullshit with fake pain and no real soul but you’d be throwing away the chance to read something that has a really interesting take on the [...]
With the Batman and Judge Dredd team up I complained about the fact that the story was somewhat flimsy and that the great artwork lacked a narrative backbone or drive (well, I intimated that anyway). I like the ideas of these crossovers, hence the number I have bought, but there aren’t many that have really [...]
