New review for Fitcher’s Bride by L. Skinner, and let’s see if I can’t get caught up on my master plan of doing a review day over the course of the year over the next week.

May 6, 2009New review for Robot Bildungsroman #1 by Joe Davidson, and I survived another election with no serious overtime to come, so things should stay normal around here.

May 2, 2009New review for Art Tatum – Meeting the Kings by Joey Jacks, and happy wedding day to Jesse and Jennifer! I’m actually there right now and writing this in the past. So if the world ends in the next couple of days, I suppose nobody will ever see this…

May 1, 2009New review for Why Comics? by Marek Bennett, and if this is working properly I am in fact out of town now and the magical computer is posting these at the appropriate date and time. Yes, I am impressed with any technology I haven’t used myself at some point…

Update for 4/29/09
April 29, 2009New reviews for Serious Workout by Suzanne Baumann and The Fifty-Flip Experiment #7 by Dan Hill. I also now have the complete run (so far) of Lackluster World by Eric Adams available in the store, so I put his page up on the main page to remind the world of what a wonderful series that has been so far.

Jo, Hellen – Jin & Jam #1
April 27, 2009
Jin & Jam #1 Now Available! $5
Are you one of the many comics readers who constantly thinks “these little books of words and pictures are fine, but what I’m really looking for is a big old fight scene involving pair of teenage conjoined twins”? If so, you have finally hit the jackpot. This issue seems to be basically an introduction to the characters, and it’s a very honest way of showing this without ending up being pretentious or sappy. Jin is hanging out with her friend Hank outside of a church, smoking and eating. There’s a lot of eating in this comic, now that I think about it. Anyway, Jam is in the church and decides to get some air. She runs into the two outside the church, she tells them they can’t be there, a cigarette is offered (and snuck into a Bible) and a friendship begins, although neither of them seems to be aware of this fact. Later they run into each other at school when Jin hears about a fight and comes down to check it out. It’s Jam versus the conjoined twins, and it a knock-down drag-out type of thing. I’ve already said way too much about this comic, but, speaking as a boy, it’s a fascinating peek into a world I know next to nothing about. That being said, these two becoming friends isn’t much different from what I experienced growing up, so I am quite possibly full of it. Either way it makes for a good story. Here’s hoping there’s more to come with these two. Oh, and if you’re as weird as I am and noticed the extra “L” in Hellen’s name, you’ll be happy to know that she’s well aware of that and played it up a bit with her website. Go on and click it, you know that made you curious. $5

April 25, 2009Two reviews today, and I’m going to try and make up for lost time at least a bit over the weekend: Misanthropic Cavalcade #3 by Joe Havasy and Super Maxi-Pad Girl #1 by Daniel J. Olson & AJ Niehaus.

April 23, 2009New review for Coelacanth and Friends (Kekionga Mini Works #16) by Pam Bliss. An unwieldly title, granted, but Pam has made a whole bunch of these things over the years, it’s best to keep them in some sort of order.

April 22, 2009New review for The Dreamer #1 by Lora Innes, and shame on the Columbus Blue Jackets for barely even putting up a fight in their playoff series.

April 21, 2009New review for Your Karate Vacation by Matt Wiegle, and oddly enough Matt was last reviewed here exactly two years ago. Just in case you were looking for a random fact of the day or something.

April 20, 2009New review for Broken by Kris Lachowski and yes, I did mean it about the extra reviews this week, but the hockey playoffs are making it tricky for me and the three other people in the world who try to catch as many games as possible.

Update for 4/19/09
April 19, 2009New review for Goodbye Kitty by Ryan Dow, and for anybody who hasn’t been to SPACE yet, you have about 3 hours to get there and buy a pile of comics like me! I’m going to be doing double reviews at least occasionally over the next couple of weeks in an attempt to keep up with that whole “one review a day” pledge. Hey, it’s the middle of April and it’s still a realistic goal, so huzzah for that.

Update for 4/17/09
April 17, 2009Sorry about yesterday, but all those missing reviw dates will get filled in after SPACE. I should also have a pile of comics coming in from Poopsheet, and for those of you who aren’t familiar with that site, picture my site but with me unemployed except for reading and reviewing comics and about ten times as motivated as I am now. He’s having a ridiculous sale at the moment, involving minis from the 70’s to today, and I believe he said it had something like 2200 comics in it. See, I told you it was ridiculous. Go here and buy, buy, buy. New review today for Debacle #2 by Barry Rodges, also available in my suddenly seemingly puny store.
