@ The Mothership: reviews of Sweets #4 and Who Is Jake Ellis #1

If all goes well over the weekend, look for the first post of hopefully many throughout the year about Alejandro Jodorowsky and The Incal here.

Both reviews can be found here.

Sweets #4:  Through his visual and color choices, Chamberlain subtly shapes the tension in the story. It may feel like we’ve read this story before but we haven’t read the story the way Chamberlain’s telling it.

Who Is Jake Ellis #1:  Too many comics nowadays lack a hook. And that’s doubly true for first issues of brand new series that get lost in world building and spend no time actually creating a riveting story. Nathan Edmonson and Tonci Zonjic’s Who Is Jake Ellis #1 has that killer hook that leaves you wanting more pages to magically show up at the end of the issue.
