THE WEEK IN REVIEW

Abe Sapien #7

"This book is a visual masterpiece, Sebastián and Max Fiumara fill every panel with supreme quality that gives so much life to the story." - Bloody Disgusting

"If you're down to watch some people shoot monsters, and to see Abe kick some ass, then by all means, have at." - Adventures in Poor Taste

Bloodhound: Crowbar Medicine #2

"The concept is so wonderfully fleshed out that Jolley and Kirk can almost assuredly count the minutes until this character is optioned for other media. Jolley and Kirk have provided a great story to encourage new readers to latch on." - Comic Book Resources

"Creators Dan Jolley and Leonard Kirk are to be commended for rekindling this concept for the world outside of the Distinguished Competition where it was an admittedly odd fit." - Bloody Disgusting

Clown Fatale #1

"Clown Fatale #1 is the definition of sleeper-hit. This is a wonderful book, flying low under the radar and will no doubt be missed by many. Hopefully you managed to read this review before your trip to the comic shoppe. If not, get back out there and pick this one up." - Comics the Gathering

"Oozing with hyper-sexuality and tough-talking dialogue, “Clown Fatale” #1 ends up becoming a totally fun read. The “Clown Fatale” series has the right look and attitude to get you hooked." - Bloody Disgusting

Resident Alien: The Suicide Blonde #3

"With "Resident Alien: Welcome to Earth!" in a collected format already, I would give a big thumbs up to picking it up, as well as "Resident Alien: The Suicide Blonde" #0-3 to follow on. This is a charming and attractive comic, and I'd bet that if you try this comic, you'll fall in love with it." - Comic Book Resources

"What I enjoyed the most about this series is that you could really see that the world is growing from the last series to this one. The idea is blossoming, but so too is the craft of both creators. It's a series that is only getting stronger and better with each installment." - Comic Bastards

S.H.O.O.T. First #2

"The story’s potential is just starting to be fulfilled, with many interesting ideas being explored. If you are looking for something deeper than a great deal of other team books, give this one a look." - Fanboy Nation

"Full of conspiracy, controversy, and craftsmanship, “S.H.O.O.T. First” #1 is a powerful introduction to an original and unique new series." - Multiversity

Star Wars #11

"Star Wars" #11 hits all of the right notes to be a successful "Star Wars" story and gives every fan's favorite character some panel time." - Comic Book Resources

"Star Wars #11 is yet another really good comic book that pushes its narrative toward a forthcoming conclusion. So grab a blaster or a lighstaber and find a nice quiet place to read." - Unleash the Fanboy

The Shaolin Cowboy #2

"If you loved Shaolin Cowboy to death, but for some reason though it needed to dispense with the speech bubbles, this might be your dream issue. A wonderful mix of madness, massacre and melee, made merry by a mishmash of mutilation." - Newsarama

"This issue is groundbreaking. Darrow has blown me away. I read a lot of comics, and I have never seen something like this – something AMAZING, like this." - Unleash the Fanboy

X #7

"It's with a morbid curiosity Ill keep turning the pages to see exactly how many bodies pile up before X fulfills his mission."- Bloody Disgusting

"X #7 still hits the mark and puts things in motion for a longer story arc and return to the brutality that X possesses. Overall a solid issue where X marks the spot." - Unleash the Fanboy
