dead of night

Unlike the previous edition, Dead of Night series doesn’t show Devil Slayer in the ugly costumes and marvel weapons this time. The makers have tried to give a new feel to the character by omitting his trademark sword, taking out the hideous blue costume and funny headgear from the visuals and pulling out the cape as well from the picture. Devil-Slayer #1 is about the current position of Iraq with a supernatural flavor to it. The story has fewer captions to support and it is basically unfurl with interesting dialogues and visuals. Though, the characters are the same antiquated war story typecasts. The marvelous artwork could make the story work. Fine use of lights and shadows and emphasis on detailing has added an artistic touch to this horror comic.

Here is the review of the latest comic Moon Knight #21 by Benson. It comes from the bag of Marvel Comics.
The Moon Knight #21 begins with the ‘Death of Marc Spector’ arc which creates a stern and fake sadness. Benson should have created some humor to give sagacity to the Moon knight. Texiera and satares have done a good job on their part by drawing screeching and shouting figures. Norman Osborn appears which is not at all surprising who has watched Venom-and-moon-night ads.
So in all Moon Knight #21 is just an average comic issue. And if this kind of stuff is going to continue in future then I am sure nobody would be interested in reading anymore of Moon Knight stuff.

“The Goon” by Eric Powell was debuted in March 1999. But due to some publication problem the full fledged issues were published by Dark Horse Comics in the year 2003. And now after these many years the Dark Horse Comics have esteemed 2008 as “The Year of The Goon”.

People not familiar with the story line here’s an outline. “The Goon” is an orphan brought up by his aunt Kizzie in a mobile cavalcade. A gangster named Labrazio joins this carnival and kills aunt Kizzie. Now goon punches and whacks Labrrazio’s skull with a rock. The Goon recovers Labrazio’s black book and begins to act as the gangster. But now again there is a twist as a figure comes and alleges to be Labrazio. And hence there is an irony whether to believe him or not.

“The Goon: Fancy Pants” was unveiled in the starting of this year. Powell says that “The monthly storyline that I’m doing for this year pretty much wraps everything up that I started from the very beginning.”

The Goon’s 26th edition is available now.

The Trojan War Series
by Mighty Hal
Oddly enough, I thought Roy Thomas was dead. The writing and artwork for this series is excellent. I loved the 5 issues -- and thought that the cover for #3 was among the year's best comic covers. But it's unlikely this series will stand the test of time. If it
