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.

Simon Dark #10 - DC
Speaking of things hitting the fan . . . everything is going down at the arcane mansion this issue. Everything that this issue has lead to so far, seems to be coming to a head. Now that they've got a large mass of people infected with their demon-soap, this group is attempting to bring across a larger demon. Maybe it's just me, but that just never seems like a good idea. Anyways, Simon and the Detective have gone to the mansion to try to throw a wrench in to things. They do a pretty good job but you just knew eventually they were going to come up against something harder. Enter the 2 demons you see pictured on the cover. Also don't forget that Rachel is still infected. However a very drunk Vincent shows up at their house. He's willing to trade the anti-viral . . the only one in the city . . for Simon's life. However Simon doesn't even know about this yet. I've enjoyed Steve Niles story so far. I appreciate his slow approach to things. When things go to fast it's hard to build the tension or the drama. Every issue of this series, though, has left me hanging. Also, Scott Hampton is absolutely incredible with the art on this series. I love his stuff, and he's really doing a fantastic job here. I'm not sure how long this series is going to go on, or what the intentions are for this character, but I hope he sticks around for quite a while. He's different . . and refreshing . . in an odd zombie, 'walking-dead' kind of way.
