"@Michael_Cho's bright, pop-art rendering of Batgirls neatly captures the attitudes and personalities of both heroes... Cut and divided diagonally, this cover is all about dualism—light vs. dark, offense vs. defense, hope vs. cynicism." https://t.co/ILDHqU657k @DCComics
"The sword tells a tale. The deep-sea flora sitting behind her tells another one, of a world far away from us that took shape through time, shifting and changing until this one moment when a Strange Visitor and a whole world of trouble came along." https://t.co/u3llmpUozf
On the docket for this week's HOT PRESS: the debuts of ROBIN & BATMAN, WHAT'S THE FURTHEST PLACE FROM HERE?, VENOM, and the ridiculously great THING, the mounting greatness of BATMAN: THE IMPOSTER, and catching up with DARK KNIGHTS OF STEEL https://t.co/B9NO94cdDG
.@LonnieNadler & @ZacBeThompson speak with @jarrodjones_ about UNDONE BY BLOOD: THE OTHER SIDE OF EDEN, the second volume in the critically-lauded @AfterShockComix series https://t.co/ZsDltKzlju
"The lines made by @Nuriamartgon are a wiggle crumble oscillation I find totally compelling... Martínez draws outsider aspirations and intellectual inspiration in OUTSPACE, a harbinger of the shape of comics to come." https://t.co/BCNWVS2KO7 @Short_Box
"The sheer contrast of her chic paper doll style with the psychological horror present in [MAIDS] is unnerving, lingering... @nurse_nurse has nailed glam and, when she feels like it, terror."
These are the best artists of the year https://t.co/BCNWVS2KO7 @fantagraphics
"A sweet, delicate thing... The way THE MAGIC FISH tells it, the reader experiences the story at the same time as the characters. An exploration of echoes as an attempt to learn to speak. @Trungles is well worth listening to." https://t.co/XcGlgwRCCn @RHKidsGraphic
"Attitudes concerning superhero pop can fluctuate wildly depending on who you’re talking to in the independent comics scene at any given moment... So when something like COMMANDERS IN CRISIS pops up, my heart swoons just a little bit." https://t.co/ZaxtxJ06il @ImageComics
"Tradd Moore’s work has always looked like someone blasted @AllredMD's art with radioactive consciousness-expanding rays, so enlisting him for a variant of Allred’s [X-RAY ROBOT] is perhaps the only thing in the world that’s made sense this entire year." https://t.co/nZNJnJ5aGp
"A Proustian paint-by-numbers... [The nods and allusions in A DARK INTERLUDE] unapologetically pour down on the Kovalyovian nose, with all the alliterative agony of Nabokov or Poe. It doesn’t get much more delightfully meta than this." https://t.co/NDrIcqJqzC @thevaultcomics
