Classics Review of The Demon: Hell's Hitman

Issues:  The Demon #40, 42-49 (Collected in The Demon: Hell’s Hitman TPB along with Annual #2, which is not reviewed here) Writer: Garth Ennis Artist: John McCrea, Denis Rodier, Nigel Dobbyn Price:  $12.99 Garth Ennis has always been my favorite comic writer.  Rather than tell simple one-note, three-act stories he always seems to be able to write tight but rollicking stories with good pacing and often with an ending that can leave one staring slack-jawed at the final page.  The brutality he brings to stories is rarely solely for shock value (except for maybe the series Dicks ) but instead is a realistic depiction and necessary ingredient of the stories he likes to tell.  Although many artists contribute to this run, Ennis starts out with his longtime collaborator, John McCrea.  Having previously collaborated on Hitman , The Boys: Herogasm , and the aforementioned Dicks , McCrea can use his art to bring Ennis’s twisted visions alive as few oth...

TPB:  The Invincible Iron Man: Extremis Vol. 1 (#1-6) Writer:  Warren Ellis Artist: Adi Granov Price:  $14.99 I have never collected Iron Man books and he’s never been one of the characters I’ve particularly cared about.  Fortunately, even someone who has never even heard of Iron Man before can pick up and enjoy Extremis.  Warren Ellis succeeds in creating a new origin story for the character (one that was later adapted for the first Iron Man movie) and augmenting his suit’s powers.  Extremis has since been adapted to a motion comic and has been hailed as one of the best Iron Man arcs in years.  A biomedical device that can create super soldiers has gone missing and Tony Stark is called in to help find it.  The narrative of Tony’s life up to this point unfolds organically through a conversation between him and two colleagues, as the talk wheels around from philosophy to psychedelics.  However,...

What else did I finish reading last month?  Here’s a cross-section of various titles . . . . . . . . . WITCHBLADE #126 “War Of The Witchblade Part 2” by Ron Marz and Stejepan Sejic  (Top Cow/Image) Preface:  Now here’s an interesting concept! = In order to attract new readers to its’ titles Top Cow is giving out free books each month as part of it’s Let Us Win You Over project.  ( www.topcow.com/freecomics )  Every month it’s a different title. And they work through different comics shops each month as well.  In April the title was Witchblade #126 and one of the participating dealers was Captain Blue Hen Comics in Newark, DE (my preferred supplier) so voila! - - - I find a copy in my hands. Since the last time I explored the Witchblade series the mythology has expanded to a battle between the forces of light and dark with each side choosing its agents on Earth, hence the Darkness vs. the Witchblade.  I’m still not overly interested in this typ...
