I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

the Spirit #12 - DC
I'll give Darwyn Cooke credit . . the guy has talent. He write's a good story. And, I don't know if it's his pencils, or J Bone's inks, but a lot of the panels look really good. My problem is . . . I just can't get in to this book. I'm picking it up because, personally, I missed the whole Spirit thing. Obviously I wasn't around for the original Eisner stories, but when they re-did it in the 80's, I think, over at Kitchen Sink . . . I just wasn't interested, so I never picked it up. Well . . even after 12 issues . . I just don't find it all that interesting. Maybe it's just the genre that doesn't appeal to me . . . or maybe . . . . I don't know. I really don't want to be negative. Obviously Eisner was brilliant. And it appears as if Darwyn is following in his footsteps. Like I said, the guy has talent. It's just . . . not my cup of tea. If you're in to this kind of stuff, I'd have to say these guys do a great job. But to me . . it's just all kind of . . boring. Sorry!
