369 – Marshal Law

Marshal Law is one of those books that was always on the periphery for me when I started reading comics. I would order back issues and trades and such from a mail order catalog – usually X-Men or Batman related stuff. But a couple books always stood out in the ads I would see. Things …

368 – One Punch

So, this is one of the more complicated requests I got over the course of the year. I had actually attempted to do this one many times throughout the months, and always failed or got caught up in something else. A few weeks ago when I decided to expand the Daily Sketches by four days …

367 – Scud, the Disposable Assassin

I have not yet read Scud, the Disposable Assassin, but I own the gigantically hefty complete series omnibus. I got it for about 5 bucks in the aftermath of Border’s Books and Music shutting down. Yay terrible economy with a mix of piracy!

362 – Proinsias Cassidy

As much as Preacher is about Jesse Custer finding God and calling Him on His bullshit, it’s also about the journey Cassidy takes from being a sleazy piece of shit vampire to redeemable human being. So basically, like Angel, with a lot more drugs, booze, sex, murder, and a more ridiculous Irish first name.

361 – Riddler

360 – Hypno-Hustler

So what was I saying about scraping the bottom of the obscure character barrel? Hi there, Hypno-Hustler, nice to meet you. Another kind-of request for Nick Marino.
