quote Mister MacPhisto
I would ask about the Anita Blake comics, but I know Curt has surely been salivating over those.
No, the Blake books are mostly written in first person singular, and the magic is largely personal, not CGI fireballs or whatever. So I think they will suck, frankly.

re: The Comics Lounge II

I had to pick up the first twelve due to Booth's art. I was a Kindred fan way back. Stormwatch and Backlash too.

You lot look into Locke and Key yet?

Speaking of Locke and Key, do we need a Dark Tower thread?

re: The Comics Lounge II

Locke and Key is an indie comic, right? Since I've been having pretty good luck with Indies I might just check it out. That and I blindly trust you with my comic reading life, Mac.

Mind giving me a brief rundown of it?

re: The Comics Lounge II

As well you should. It is an indie from IDW... created by Joe Hill (King's son) and is on ish 4 of its second six issue series. Basically, you have a family relocate to the ancestral home after the father is murdered by a crazed teen. None of the family members are handling it well. Bode is the youngest and the first to discover the magical keys in the ancestral home. The keys are slowly revealed one at a time and only function after being inserted into the proper lock. Bode seems to have an imaginary friend in the well house... said imaginary friend has a connection to his father's killer... who escapes and comes to finish his work.

So its got a supernatural vibe. Interesting. I'm going to check it out. Sounds like it's pretty good.

IDW really isn't indie.

It's certainly far more indy than either of the big two.

re: The Comics Lounge II

Might help if there was ever a consistent definition of indie. Some say anything not big two is indie. Some say anything not Marvel, DC, Image, Dark Horse, and Archie is indie. Some say anything with no editorial staff is indie. Some say anything which is not solicited through Diamond is what is indie.

Starting to think we need a Dark Tower thread...

First ish of the new series is out tomorrow.

Wish I could have picked it up. Friggin' Diamond shorted my LCS's entire order of Dark Tower. Argh. Teaser for Fall of Gilead looked good.

True.

I snagged a promo poster for Dark Wolverine this week. Massive thing with Logan versus Daken.

Good shit, how many of those you have up in your home? I'm guessing more than i can count. (don't insult my intelligence, that's too obvious for you )
