One of the biggest surprises of 2010 has been how great the new Flash series has been. Geoff Johns’ writing has been great but what has really made this series spectacular has been the amazing art by Francis Manapul.

A couple of weeks ago I made a trip to San Francisco for WonderCon and thanks to the Image Comics panel, was introduced to “Turf” a new comic series penned by on-air personality Jonathan Ross, with art from Tommy Lee Edwards. I knew who Ross was but even with him attached to the project I wasn’t immediately sold on picking this book up. Then I saw the cover and learned that “Marvel 1985″ artist Edwards was on the series. The two collaborating was enough to get me cautiously optimistic about the...

Ah, Marvel Zombies. Love it or hate it, it’s undeniably growing in popularity amongst Marvel readers, and the franchise pretty much doubled it’s back catalogue size in 2009 alone. Some people have a real dislike for Robert Kirkman’s early runs on the series he created, but I think with the arrival of Fred Van Lente’s ‘Marvel Zombies 3′ series a while back, a lot of readers felt as if he had rekindled their love for what was, (or in some eyes, ‘what could have been’) a remarkable...
