You Shall Die By Your Own Evil Creation by Fletcher Hanks - The charm has worn off slightly, but not a lot of people have made weirder comics than Hanks. For some reason his comics give me the same vibe as "Grinch's Ultimatum" but I can't even begin to explain why.

Orion by Walter Simonson - One big love letter to the original Fourth World while also being completely original. Love that Orion actually get character development and isn't stuck in some weird continuity loop. Simonson was the second coming of Kirby in my opinion.

I Am A Hero Omnibus Volume 1 by Kengo Hanazawa - This book is great because it thoroughly gets you to understand and empathize with it’s main character before throwing him in a world of shit. It’s both funny and terrifying, and all weird.

Daredevil: Yellow by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale - it's enjoyable but it was all just kind of melodramatic. Love Sale's art and Loeb's writing is fun, but I like Spiderman: Blue a lot better.

Pim and Francien by Al Columbia - This is the only comic (?) that I've found genuinely distressing. I loved it lots.

Barbara by Osamu Tezuka - I really enjoyed this book! Tezuka gets wild and loose with this one and I loved seeing that. Maybe a little too edgy for its own good but it never gets unlikable. Shame I never see anyone really talk about it.

Right before I go to bed I read the first chapter of Barbara. It’s kind of experimental and the line work is looser than Tezuka usually goes. I’m hoping I like this one but there’s still plenty of room for him to mess it up. Here’s hoping it’s not another MW 🤞

Manhunter by Archie Goodwin and Walter Simonson (1973)

Batman - Arkham Asulum: A Serious House On Serious Earth by Grant Morrison and Dave McKean (1989)

Fourth World by Jack Kirby (1970-73)
