Tales of Action and Adventure Which Will Leave Your Senses Shattered #1
Christ, what a title! Another convention, another book of odds and ends from Alex. This one has a story from Dork Tower which follows a gold coin through its day and one about Ultra-Gal trying to lead a normal life. Is there an origin story for her floating around that I’ve just missed? Sure, I’m a dork, but I’d love to see the origin for a superhero who just happens to be normal. Told by Alex Robinson, that is. The first story is a lot of fun, with halflings, lizard men and lots of death, while the second story is more about trying to have sex with sirens going off and buying lemon bars. Good stuff all around, which probably isn’t shocking to anyone, but do you come here to be shocked or to be informed? Oh, and Tricked, his new graphic novel, should be out this year. Well, I’m guessing this year, because the back of the book says “coming soon”, and soon is not 2005. It’s $3, I’m sure you can find the contact info if you look hard enough…
