The Comic Hunter Book Club 4


Every 4 Wednesdays, a group of us have been meeting for book clubs here at The Comic Hunter. Most Wednesdays we hang out and do the same, but we've decided to pick a book every month to focus on. If anyone is interested in joining, we meet Wednesday nights at 9pm!

I've told those who have come out for a while now that I'd post a general write up of our book club meetings. Haven't had a chance to do the first three, but here I am for the fourth!

Before I continue on, I'll recap what we've done up to now.

1st- Cowboy Ninja Viking Vol. 1 TP (not rated, most people enjoyed it, could get better once the series gets going(
2nd- Swamp Thing by Alan Moore Vol. 1 HC (8.8/10)
3rd- Invincible Vol. 1 HC (8.85/10)

Ok, now that this is out of the way, the plan for the Book Club review is that I'll be posting the average score for the books, as well as a commment from the highest rater, and lowest rater. Also, a general pros/cons from peoples takes on them.

On Oct. 27th, we met up for Chew Vol. 1 HC, chosen by Scott Wallace.

Our average score for the book ended up being 7.625/10, which is our lowest yet.

- Many people had trouble getting behind the concept/setting of the book
+ Although the story was original and fun for those that couple get by it.

+ Art is very well done, and suits the story
- Although the writer is young and stumbled a bit with the flow into the second story, and the characters could be more developed.

- First stories don't have the highest re-readability,
+ Although those who read it more than once said they noticed a lot of things they missed the first time,
+ And most who read it will be continuing with the story.

+ Packaging for the hardcover was very well put together.

Highest rating was by Jeff Wry (9.0) who said: "It's a completely original concept, witty writing, with art that works very well with the genre"

Lowest rating was by Brad Sheasgreen (5.5) who said: "Great concept, poor execution. It didn't grab me one bit, mostly because of it's mostly forgettable characters."

Essex County among top 40 books of the decade

The CBC / Canada Reads Top 40 novels of the decade has been assembled and it just so happens to include Essex County by Jeff Lemire. If, like me, you've read it, then this probably comes as no surprise. For me, the trilogy was overflowing with Canadiana. I think I might need to make it my pick the next time it's my turn for the book club.

Anyway, if you want to vote, or to look at the whole list, check it out here:
http://www.cbc.ca/books/canadareads/

They're voting on the top 10 now till November 7th.

Bruce Wayne - The Road Home Part I

Bruce Wayne has (sort of) returned and the Road Home is filled with One-shots! To conclude the return storyline that is still taking place in the Bruce Wayne: The Return mini-series, DC has released a number of one-shots this month instead of the usual issues of various Bat-titles as well as other special character one-shots.

The over-arching story for these one-shots appears to be Bruce Wayne's assessment of those who have carried on the Bat legacy in his absence through time since the ending of Final Crisis. Since the final issue of the Return has not come out yet, its unknown the circumstances of how Bruce gets back to the future. What is know is that he seems to want to test those within his inner circle to determine how he will fit into the new dynamic that has been created in his absence.

Batman and Robin
Bruce begins his tests with the new version of the dynamic duo - Dick Grayson Batman and Damian Wayne Robin. Bruce is dressed up in a special suit that mimics the powers of the Justice League so he can get himself out of tight spots. Not sure why he would give that suit up later on to go back to the Batsuit but that's a story for another time. Fabian Nicieza writes a story showcasing how the methods of the new team differ from Bruce's but is effective nevertheless. Bruce notes how the team is thriving in their new roles and seems satisfied to move onto his next subject, Red Robin. The other sub-plot of the issue is Vicki Vale's continued investigation into the identity of Batman and his inner circle. Her meeting with Hush Bruce Wayne convinces her that the real Bruce Wayne is missing and that she is on the right track to her big story. The art in this issue is nothing spectacular but it served the story. 3 out of 5 bullets.

Red Robin
With the Red Robin issue, things are a bit different as it appears that Bruce has allowed Tim to know that he is back and they are working together to stop the assassination plot against the Mayor of Amsterdam. Again, Nicieza writes the story which provides a good summary of Tim's outlook as Red Robin as Bruce sees how his newest son has changed his approach to crime-fighting. The issue moves along and is an entertaining read. Nicieza moves the action along revealing bits and pieces over the overall plot while maintaining the observation viewpoint of Bruce as he tests Tim's mettle. The Vicki Vale sub-plot continues in this issue as she takes some time to talk to Alfred about her suspicions and about the fact that Dick put a Bat-tracer in her bag. Alfred, sly fox that he is makes a switch and schools Vicki on the obvious lesson that you never take your evidence to the people you are going to confront with it. A better issue that the start-up story 3.5 out of 5 bullets.

Batgirl
Next up is the Batgirl part of the arc. I like the Batgirl title as it is a bit lighter fair than the rest of the Bat-titles for the most part. Pere Perez's art is light and clean and really captures the fun of the character and the tone of the series well. I am disappointed that Perez's run is coming to an end and that Dustin Nyguen is taking over. I don't think his art fits the title but that is another story for another time. Again we are following the formula of the first two parts with Bruce testing Stephanie this time. Bruce takes some tech from WayneTech and Steph is the first responder and with the help of her tech team of Oracle and Proxy she tracks down leads to find out what he will use the weaponry for. The end of the book shows a confrontation between Bruce and Steph as he reveals his identity to her and her response to him that you have to see to believe. I enjoyed this issue the most out of the series so far as the regular team of Bryan Miller and Pere Perez manage to continue Batgirl's story while working in the Bruce Wayne stuff. 4 out of 5 bullets.

The next stop on the Bruce Wayne world tour is the country of Markovia to check in on the Outsiders. I haven't been following this title since Dan Didio took over and it seems that, like Bruce, I have missed a number of changes since I last looked in on the characters. From what I could glean from the issue, Geo-Force, as the ruler of Markovia made an alliance with New Krypton that has ticked off his subjects and now he is faced with rioting and threats of assassination. Black Lightning and Metamorpho are not on the team any longer but Looker returns in this issue. Mike W. Barr (writer of the original Batman and the Outsiders) writes this issue but follows a pretty standard formula of how Bruce-man takes out the whole team with his JLA suit. The story was rather formulaic and again the art was serviceable but nothing to rave about. The Vicki Vale sub-plot continues here with Vicki deciding to get her hair colored red for some strange reason. She looks like Oracle when she has a conversation with Jack Ryder about whether or not she should kill her story about the Bat family identities. This sub-plot is all over the map in terms of how Vicki Vale's personality is portrayed so far by the different writers. 2.5 out of 5 bullets.

End of Part I. Stay tuned for Part II of the Road Home reviews covering the last half of the one-shots: Catwoman, Commissioner Gordon, Oracle and Ras Al Ghul.

Walking Dead Weekly








Image has announced that they will reprint the entire run of The Walking Dead - WEEKLY - starting in January. I don't know if this is a good idea, but it IS a cool idea. I'll be sticking to trades, but for all the rest of you who aren't reading it yet, well, now you'll really have no excuse.















What to Read: Warren Ellis


io9 has a nice little article about 10 lesser known Warren Ellis stories. Planetary, Authority, Transmetropolitan, and Red, which has just been made into a movie out last week, are some of his more well known, and while the intro to the article mentions NextWave, I don't really see that as one of his more well known, but very much a must-read of his!

Having read most of them, or at least parts of 9 of the 10, I can honestly say that they're all pretty solid. Ocean and Freakangels (which is an upcoming book club selection for those invovled, or curious about it) are standouts, while Orbiter was a little more low-key, but a great read as well. I'll be checking out the full Supergod when it gets collected in HC, and Global Frequency when I find the missing issues for my run!

Check the full thing here!

31st Century Elections

Gentle reader, do you often times find yourself sitting pensively, pondering the complexity of politics in our 21st century? Perhaps while sampling a thirst-quenching sarsaparilla? (I don’t know.. it works for me.. choose your own drink accordingly.) While doing so, do you bemoan the true lack of choice voters are faced with? The same platitudes and promises, waffling and hand-wringing resurface from election to election. The lack of character, individuality, outlandish outfits, alien powers and fetching titles. Wouldn’t you like to, just once, cast a vote and make a difference? Well, celebrate this day then my friend, for in the 31st century, you’ve been given the chance to cast a vote and make a difference. In a call-back to days of yore, DC Comics is giving you a chance to help select the next chairman of the Legion of Super-Heroes.
