Love Dreams #3

I should mention right away that all of the stories in here involve either Rick or his brother Al Limacher in some way. This is a collection of dream comics involving love in some way or another, sometimes obviously so, sometimes not so much. Rick experiments with a couple of different artistic styles in here, showing more than a little bit or range. Stories in here include living with robots, having anal sex with Canadiens, Bill Miller talking with women from personal ads, Jack Bertram drawing a variation of the Beauty and the Beast theme, Tom Ebelt’s dream of a cowgirl, Dave Butterfield with a lovable werewolf and a fishy tale from Al. It’s an interesting mix of stories, which is exactly what you need for a book like this. It’s worth a look at (probably) $2, that’s for sure. Contact info is up there!

Energons #53 (written by Sherman Burnett)

Ick. Sorry, I like to be as diplomatic as possible about these reviews, but this was just awful. Granted, it’s #53 in a series (which is impressive all by itself) and I’m missing most of the backstory here, but the fact that I didn’t care about it at all should tell you something. This is the story of a very, very gay team of superheroes (I’m talking about costumes here, and I mean “gay” in the schoolyard insult sense, not in the ordinary human being sense) and a guy in jail. Maybe it wouldn’t have been so bad if there was a decent piece of dialogue anywhere to be found. What I kept thinking while I was reading it (and it’s tiny, so it’s not like it took me too long) was that this book would probably be really cool if it had one of those old radio show soundtracks behind it. You know, where the music would swell at the appropriate moments? But it didn’t, so it wasn’t. Cool, that is. Here’s an address, it’s $.50: 210 Wayne St. Monticello, KY 42633. I had to make this sample huge so you could see the awful dialogue…
