But fortunately, someone else bought it by the time I came back again. The local library has it digitally, so I may check it out there. Let me know if you end up liking it.
Good art, good story. Worth reading but not worth paying $29.99 for it. :(

More Orcs!

This week's bounty.

I decided to revisit Dungeon, a book I bought long ago and lost track of.

And more Orcs, just because. Well, actually because I like Sweeney Boo's covers better than Larson's. :roll:

Don't you think you went a little heavy on Usagi ? :lol:

Anyway, I can't believe American Bison came out. I bought the first three hardcovers from IST but they don't have this one. Grrr!

I managed to get Roanoke in HC, but my shop only ordered the TPB for the other volumes, so that's what I went with for Mustangs and Bison. I really like these books. Now to track down some of the Science Comics books. :P

You mean these? :wink: Next to Scott Pilgrim.

My favorites are Crows, Cats, Dogs and Polar Bears. Some of them are very long winded!

Wild Weather = Long Winded. Was that a joke?

I just finished skimming through Science Comics Spiders. There was so much text I got tired of reading it.

I was being serious. I thought you were the one joking. :roll:

What is Starpuck?

To be honest, I haven't taken the time to really check it out yet, other than it's a black & white comic. I bought it only because of the cover by Stan. One copy is mine, the other two are for fellow Dojoers.

More books for future giveaways. I heard that Kyle has boxes upon boxes of comics to giveaway so this will probably be the last of my goodies for awhile. :)

Some 80s/90s goodness. I hope it held up over the years.

I've never read anything from Brandon Graham but based on his positive Prophet reviews I'm giving this a try.

I had to pick up the red hardcover and the latest Star Wars omnibus. :) I wish the Star Wars comics were released in oversized hardcovers because this omnibus is way too big!
