I dont mind the back up features if it adds more to the overall story being told in the book.

I just finished American Vampire vol 1 and i was blown away with how well developed the characters were. Skinner Sweet is the kind of villian I enjoy reading the most because his motivations are never clear and you never know what he's going to do in a given situation which makes him the best kind of dangerous. Pearl and Henry are the couple that you pull for because nothing is easy for them.James "Jim" Book is the classic tragic hero i could see Clint Eastwoods voice when he talks. All in all I really enjoyed it. Rafael Albuquerque's art fits so well with King and Snyder's writing. Because of the cartoony style Rafael can show more of the gruesome parts without it being to much. Im ready to dig into the next arc.

i really want to check this out, seems right up my alley, but after the disappointment that was the massive delays and ending of WHO IS JAKE ELLIS? i'm going to wait this one out and see how things go.
I can understand that but I know Mitch Gerads and he and Nathan are busting their behinds to keep this book on time.

I absolutely love this ongoing title so far. Its about a secret unit of covert operatives that is based on a real organization once known as the Intelligence Support Activity. It has that nice blend of the original Mission Impossible and even GIJOE but much more realistic. All the tech they use is tech that exists in the real world. Its only one issue in so far so you can jump right in.The art by Mitch Gerads is beautiful too it fits the world wide scope of the book.

I dont think there is any company whether Marvel,DC,DarkHorse,Boom or whatever that does not have atleast a couple of books that you might like and enjoy reading. I never agree with or understand when someone makes a bnket statement that none of a companies books are worth reading.
