New review for The Sad State of Affairs of Rooster Jack by Adam Hansen & Ben Zmith. Thought I’d have more updates this weekend, but this is really more “read books and catch up on tv” weather than “write about comics” weather. Hey, I don’t make the rules…

December 8, 2010New review for The Girls are Mighty Fine by Amy Martin. I had this crazy idea for the end of the year, as those constant year-end “best of” lists are going to come out before you know it. What are the best small press comics you’ve read over the year? I want to know. And if you’re somebody who has sent me comics for review in the past but have something in mind that I haven’t mentioned here, why not send me a copy? Or at least mention it so I know what to look for? There’s a chance I already have a copy in my review pile and just haven’t gotten around to it yet. Anyway, just a thought, and even with all the comics I read in a year I’m all too aware that I still miss a lot of fantastic stuff. Oh, and keep those orders for comics coming…

December 6, 2010New review for Because I Am: Stories 2004-2009 by P.F. Davies. Holiday shopping is still open for business around here, and I bug because I think your loved ones deserve some great comics for the holidays. Don’t you agree?

December 4, 2010New review for The M.I.E.A #1 & 2 by Jason Neuman and Dave Hudson, as I’m all snowed in anyway, might as well read some comics and yammer about it…

November 24, 2010New review for Bantam #1 by Lupi Miguinti, and that’s probably it for me for a couple of holiday days, although I still have some minor tinkering to do around the edges that you probably won’t even notice, so forget I mentioned it…

November 22, 2010New review for Borderland by Dan Archer & Olga Trusova. I should point out that while the store still seems to be broken, I’ll guarantee all orders placed before December 20th get to you before Christmas. How can I do that if the store is broken? Simple: I can still see the orders you TRIED to make. So if you go through the regular ordering process and get an error message, I’ll see exactly what you tried to order and send you an e-mail asking you if you’d still like to place the order. If so you send me the money through Paypal, I send you the comics, everybody wins. Yes, it’s an extra step or two in an age when everything has to be immediate, but getting quality comics is worth a little extra effort, right? This may all be moot if the store gets fixed, but I’ve learned better than to promise a damned thing on that front…

November 21, 2010New review for Team Girl Comic #2, and sorry about the absence, but real life does occasionally get in the way of my rambling about comics. I know, I think it’s annoying too.

November 15, 2010New review for Retail Duncan by Edgar Castro, which I should have reviewed ages ago but kept getting distracted. It should also be available in my store, but as the store seems to be broken at the moment I haven’t bothered to add it just yet, at least until I can get it fixed. If you would like a copy let me know and we can do this the old fashioned way: through an exchange of e-mails.

November 11, 2010New review for what is still, albeit in a very loose sense, Dan W. Taylor Thursdays: Pork Belly #4. It’s an issue that’s all Tom Brinkmann, but Dan did publish it, so it still barely fits the theme. That’s the last of his comics though, so it’s back to random Thursdays unless somebody else wants to send me a stack of books. And why do people say “Happy Veteran’s Day?” I don’t get it. Thank them for their service, sure, but is it really supposed to be a happy day? It’s always baffled me…
