Comic Picks By The Glick

It will cost you, but this long out-of-print anthology is worth tracking down.

I look at the late, great manga writer's non-terrible and actually good collaborations with Ryoichi Ikegami.

Anyone looking to make a drinking game out of this episode is advised to take a shot each time I mention "female wish fulfillment" when talking about "Crying Freeman."  It really wasn't something I was expecting to engage with before re-reading it...

Strap in as Myron and I take an in-depth look at this epic milestone anthology celebration of Batman.

This series about the beginning of Darth Vader's infamy is inextricably linked in my mind to its predecessor.  For worse, and for better.

Follows on from this.  Myron's back to help figure out if this latest Spider-event is any good or if you should just watch "Into the Spider-Verse" again.

In which I find lots of ways to say, "It's good, but not as good as 'The Ancient Magus' Bride'" about Kore Yamazaki's latest series.

Will I say something problematic or insightful about this pair of graphic novels featuring an African-American reporter going undercover as a white man in the 1920's?

A fancy way of saying that, along with the live-action movie, I'll be talking about the "Holy Night and Other Stories" and "Ashen Victor" collections.

I look at several recent releases, and one old one, to determine what makes a comic scary.

Featuring criminals, lovers, madmen, graphic violence, clever plans, and laugh-out-loud moments throughout the list, and all together in the year's best read.
