Manta Reads

it has come to my attention, having most recently scanned the aisles of my local comic book shop, that there is a severe drought of good material to be found. in fact, there is little to any good comic nourishment to be found these days. with that said, and as your all knowing, all doing leader, i have taken it upon myself to guide you through the sargasso that is the present comic book market...

read #1. pick up mark millar's 'old man logan' today. while it has a few chiche moments, and various nods to an excessive amount of dead marvel characters, it is one of the best end o' the world stories this villain has read since cormac mccarthy's 'the road'. it is 'unforgiven' for wolverine fans, and 'mad max' for everyone else...

read #2. when you're done with that, dig up 'thor: ages of thunder'. almost as good as rob rodi's 'loki' (and thats not rod roddy of 'price is right fame'). the art is tremendous, and if you like your thor righteous and pissed at everyone (including his old man), then its your cup of mead. really worth the four dollar crucifixion they hit you with. and if they don't get you, i will for not buying it:

may odin bless your mess,
