I just read the third issue of GIGA, which was great. This book remains unlike anything currently on shelves (that I know of, at least), marvelously mixing religious awe with post-apocalyptic dread. A compelling, driven story, utterly gorgeous to look at. @adityab @weredawgz
41.) Also launching in May is THE BLUE FLAME, exploring the many lives and fragmented identities of a superhero awaiting cosmic trial to decide his fate as well as humanity’s. I do love a good cosmic rumination on identity and superheroes, and I am VERY into this creative team.
me: should I reply to your newsletters
@AvivaMaiArtzy: sure
me:
I don’t think I properly appreciated it when I first read it, but, man, I just leafed through the issue of SOLO featuring Damion Scott, and it’s absolutely stunning. I can’t even put into words how rad this is—an immense energy that overwhelms you in the best possible way.
38.) October sees the release of FLY BY NIGHT, a supernatural drama about a New Jersey girl looking for her missing sister. I really like the premise, and even more than that I REALLY like the creative team, so I’ll certainly be checking this out. @WhitLeopard
36.) The May-debuting MADE IN KOREA explores humanity and artifice, as well as what it means to be a family in a world without biological parenthood. This book looks fascinating and captivating and just gorgeous.
The second issue of THE PICTURE OF EVERYTHING ELSE beautifully manages to keep a quiet enough façade until its sense of serrated dread totally creeps up on you. This book is delightfully written and gorgeously painted and lettered. You should read it, imho. @adityab
35.) NIGHTMARE IN SAVANNAH is an OGN out this fall from Mad Cave’s new Maverick line, and it sounds and looks absolutely fantastic. I want it! I need it!!
I finally got a chance to read the second issue of A DARK INTERLUDE, and it’s a delight. This book continues to be just as incredibly strong as its predecessor, with delightfully wry writing, perfectly visualized and realized onto the page.
