Constantine: The Hellblazer (#11)

Well New York City has gone to Hell...LITERALLY while John is looking for help and refuge in the city if Angels. There is a lot happening as he is forced back to the city that he wishes to leave behind only to find out that it needs him more than ever. He is what the city needs as is you know the character, then you know why. The story and art are great as this is the best the character has been since the original series ended. It's awesome as it just keeps building and building into a grand conclusion.

Ghostbusters International (#3)

Well folks, If you are a regular reader of this blog, you may have figured out that I am a huge fan of the Ghostbusters and I love what IDW has done with the franchise. With this new issue, they do battle against a really big ghost on an island in Italy, as the feathers fly as the guys find a link between the asylum and possibly an old case Egon dealt with on his first trip to Europe years ago as an old cold case may have reopened. Oh, throw in a laugh with the open interviews of people as Janine looks for some help around the firehouse. There is a lot happening as now the boys head on to Paris as per their agreement...lets see where this leads to next as this ghost busting fan is excited to read more.

Baltimore: Empty Graves (#1 of 5)

Well folks, we have the new issue in the Baltimore series where Mignola's other creation does battle with vampires who plague Europe...now with friends! As they bury empty graves (sere where they got the name!?) of friends lost and bodies not recovered, we are treated to a little back story as Lord Baltimore as is left more in thinking then action in this issue. This could only mean one thing...there will be plenty of butt to kick when he finds the Red King! As always, the art and story are great as I expect nothing less from Dark Horse and company. Great first issue.

Escape from New York (#16)

Here, we have reached the end of the story featuring Snake between his exploits in the classic Escape from New York and Escape from L.A. Here he is ready to throw the nation under the bus for a little peace and quiet....which is all he ever really wants. With the nation in his hands, he does as only Snake can do and pisses off those in power! That's right folks, this brings to end a great run and great fun that was had by so many as this was a great series with great art and great stories. Though it is sad that it comes to an end, in the end, it is for the best before it drags on needlessly to something that sucks. Great work Boom! You did well.

Spirit's Destiny (#1)

Here we have the first issue in what looks to be a promising series called Spirit's Destiny. With the premier issue, we have Destiny who seems to have a recurring dream from childhood. Throw in the bullying and lab accident and you have the beginnings of a new hero! Obviously a fan of Spider Man, Jean uses the ideas as tribute while launching their own series. Both the story and art are amazing and, though it doesn't give you everything in this premier issue, if gives you enough to want to read on the series to see what happens. There seems to be lots of hints for something bigger in the future as well as who her father is. So, with that said, I HIGHLY recommend you just on this indie comic gold right at issue one so that you don't miss a beat....you'll be happy you did as things can only only get higher from here!

The Amazing Spider-Man: Amazing Grace part 4 (#1.4)

Well, this story gets more twisted as we are no closer to just how.a dead man walks the streets after he kills himself. What has Spider-Man gotten himself into? His allies turn their back initially and there is more questions then answers in this series. Throw in the random voices the guy hears and you have something from a twisted movie. Actually, I think this would make a great Spider-Man animated movie....Marvel, get on this!

Robby Bloodshed - Fallen Heroes

If there is one man who doesn't disappoint it is Robby Bloodshed! With this new release we get more Queen then we do Misfits but, I love Queen anyway! Thus, I am good. From the opening sounds of "Fallen Heroes", to the closing notes of the Descendents cover "Bikeage", the man has another winner on his hands! As well, "Burn" is maybe his heaviest song to date in my opinion. With his 5 originals you get awesome songs with awesome songwriting and with his covers you get quality picks with great performances! Like I said before, he never disappoints as he gets better with each release! So, I think you already know my opinion about what the standouts are. Thus, don't wait another day as you should get this album and listen to it in the basement if you must....you'll be able to keep yourself alive by doing this and your ears will thank you just the same.
