Caught up on my comics this week and read:
The Last Call Vol. 1, by Vasilis Lolos – A great looking comic about two kids who somehow wind up on a mysterious train populated by monsters. Beautiful to look at, but I’m not sure the story is strong enough to bring me back for Vol. 2.
Coward, Criminal Vol. 1, by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips. The first TPB from their new noir series. Very good stuff indeed. Nice to see Brubaker back in straight crime comics without the superheroes.
Phonogram Vol. 1: Rue Britannia, by Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie – a good miniseries about indie music, magic, and cultural trends. Some really smart writing and good art, though it seemed to get a little muddled on the way to the resolution.
