-A WORD OR 125 ON DARK HORSE PRESENTS #1

It would be easy to think that being so low on this list means that I hated it.  I didn’t.  My issue (if you would call it that, as it will resolve itself in time) is that it’s very difficult to have a satisfying comic book that is mostly composed of the first few pages of stories.  Some of them were clunkers, but others I look forward to reading more of even if it means paying 8 dollars to buy another book full of clunkers.

Please do me a favor, though, and don’t buy it if all you’re interested in is the preview of Frank Miller’s prequel to 300, Xerxes.  It’s four pages, takes less than a minute to read, and has almost no content.

Got anything to say? Go ahead and leave a comment!
