Pi’s Comics – November 24th

Okay, so back with actual reasons this week, here’s what I’m getting!

Pi’s Comics – November 17th

I’m kind of going through some stuff right now, so instead of a long post, it’ll pretty much just be my list of what I’m expecting to get. If you really want to know why something’s there, just ask, and I’ll explain.

Review: American Vampire #8

Incubator Press

Hey there, readers.  Cal here.  Do you like me?  Do you hate me?  Are your minds not made up about me?

Whatever your answer, scoot on over to Incubator Press and read the author bio on me, and then find some way to read the estimable “Food Chain: Tipping Point” anthology of zombie comics.  Why should you do these things?  Have I read “Food Chain: Tipping Point”?

No!  But my short story, “Compromise”, is IN that anthology, and having read the script for that particular story, I can promise you this: it’s pretty okay!  Reviews back me up on that, too: Project Fanboy said of my contribution, “not a great story,” and “the character’s motivations are not as clear as they could be.” But with the magic of pull quotes, I’d like to point out that they also called it “mostly successful,” a “solid story” with “emotional resonance”.  They also recommended it.

All joking aside, the first review was very favorable, giving the anthology four out of five stars and praising the amount and quality of the content you get.  Go read the review yourselves, and then go buy the comic. I assure you, you might not regret it!

Pi’s Comics – November 10th

Another week of comics comes again and I give you my list of the comics I’m getting this week. Fun! The art below is by Chris Giarrusso, the guy who made Mini-Marvels, and while this was copied from his website, it actually is a crayon sketch I own and is special as it is the first piece of Deadpool art I’ve gotten.

Pi’s Comics – November 3rd

Well, I have no idea what the heck is up with Marvel’s online catalog, listed here, but that is not a complete list (or even fully right on the things it does have) for this week. What the heck, Marvel? Sigh… Oh well, here we go again. Oh, and go Giants! WHOO WORLD SERIES!
