The Chattering Order of St. Beryl - Brand New Baby Smell

Spawn - The Rise of Image Comics

ChaosEngine says...

I never really got into Spawn and Rob Liefeld... well, google Rob Liefeld and the first result is The 40 Worst Rob Liefeld Drawings.

It's also kind of ironic that despite Image's entire raison d'etre being "creator's rights", they ended up in a legal battle with Neil Gaiman over a character Gaiman created for McFarlane.

That said, Image are putting out some amazing work these days. If you like comics or sci-fi and you're not reading Saga or Black Science, you're missing out. Seriously, go read them now.

Side note: I know purists probably hate digital comics, and as someone who owns 5 volumes of Ultimate Sandman, I do like a real book, but digital comics are goddamn awesome.

American Gods trailer - Neil Gaiman

AeroMechanical says...

I just started reading it and it's quite good.

I also realized I was confusing Neil Gaiman with Neil Stephenson when I wrote that comment, which explains the confusion.

Stephenson = Lots of Exposition. Good, but tend towards the heavy side.

Gaiman = Good fun books.

This is one of my all-time favourite books, but I have to disagree with @AeroMechanical.

There's very little in the way of exposition in this book. It treats you like an adult and expects that you have at least an inkling of various world religions/mythologies.

For example, the always terrifying Peter Stromare (the guy with the hammer) plays Czernobog. Don't know who that is? Go look it up, 'cos Gaiman isn't bothered telling you.

So far, this looks amazing. My only (very minor) criticism is the bizarre decision to have Ian McShane clean shaven (especially since Ian McShane can rock a beard like nobodies business!) when Mr Wednesday is described as having a beard.

I am really, really excited for this.

American Gods trailer - Neil Gaiman

moonsammy says...

Based on a book by Neil Gaiman. I read it years ago, but remember very little beyond a few of the characters involved and the fact that I enjoyed it. Think it's time to take that back off the shelf.
