Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On...   Alter Ego Vol 2 #5  By Roy Thomas & Ron Harris! From Heroic Publishing!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3653 - This comic book was shown to me by the Publisher of Heroic Publishing, Dennis Mallonee, who is shown above at his table at the recent Long Beach Comic Con Expo, (see blog #3647 for my review on the LBCC Expo).  

So what is the publisher's promo blurb for this issue number 5?  Here it is:

"For the first time in 25 years, enjoy an all-new adventure of ALTER EGO, by his original creative team of Roy Thomas and Ron Harris. In this 25th anniversary special, the world of classic CRIME COMICS opens for Rob Lindsay when he dons the mystic mask of ALTER EGO to do battle with BROTHER CRIME!"

Okay... Here's My Take on this issue:

First of all, I have had a copy of the first four issues of this comic book series in the past, but never all of them at one time, so truth be told, I haven't read the series!  So this issue #5, printed 25 years later is actually my first time reading the series!

Front Cover - Nice Front Cover!  I didn't see the 'Heroic Publishing' name on the door being smashed in when I first looked at the page, but I do now.  Good standard front cover!

Inside Front Cover - Which is "A 25th Anniversary Introduction by Roy Thomas'!  Great intro piece by Roy!

Splash Page - Now that's a Splash Page!

Interior Pages - A total of 21 additional interior pages, with only an inhouse ad page following the story.  Which is NOT a 'to be continued story'!

Following the inhouse ad page is a 2 page feature by Ron Harris, titled:  "In Loving Memory, Mister Crime".   A good feature, which shows that the artist had an additional interest in the feature.

Then an ad from The Hero Initative, the only charitable fund dedicated to helping yesterday's comic creators in need, and then...

The Inside Back Cover - Which featured a one inhouse ad for the graphic novel: Alter Ego by Roy and Ron 'Alter Ego: the Graphic Novel', which reprinted the first four issues of this series.

Back Cover - The Ka-Blam Girl's ad, from the printer.

So, here's what I think of this issue:

As noted above, I have not read the first four issues of this series, either in comic book format, nor in 'graphic novel' format that was recently reprinted.

However, I do enjoy Roy Thomas stories, and I found this issue to be one that I also enjoyed for the storyline!

Plus it was a 'Done In One' story!  Which right now is hard to beat!

The artwork by Ron Harris was also fine in detail, and the two comics creators did a good job in updating this series to where 'Alter Ego Fights Crime!'. 

The price of the comic book is just a little high, at $4.99 per copy, which is the only drawback that I could find in this issue.

I enjoyed the intro by Roy and the 2 page feature by Ron after the main story.  A really good comic book to read, IMO!

My comic book grade for this first issue is a Very Fine / Near Mint (VF/NM) 9.0 out of a possible 10.0 comic book grading scale.

You can buy this comic book direct from the publisher at:  Heroic Publishing.

Or if you are on a Kindle format for reading... You can purchase it here: Alter Ego #5

Thanks to Dennis Mallonee for bringing this comic book to my attention at the Long Beach Comic Con Expo!

Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On...   Lucid World #2  From G2 Comics!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3652 - This comic book was mailed to me by the writer / creator of the series, James Pinard.  (See previous blog posts on James, here.)

I've had a running conversation with James for a few years now, and looked forward to seeing this comic book from him, and the other comics creators involved in the book.

So what is the book about?  Here's the publisher's POV of what the comic is about:

"Lucid World Issue #1 promises to be the first in a series of comics that promises to offer a new perspective on the zombie comic genre which features Zombies (a.k.a. “The Dead Army”), who look human and eat live flesh to retain their appearance and hide amongst the living. And also features a race of Super-Humans known as the “Lucid Killers,” who will be created to stop them from taking over our world one city at a time.

The story begins when Lynch, the leader of the Dead Army and also part of the initial experiment, and his followers, take over the small town of Spring Falls. They will spread their disease by turning every one of its inhabitants into the Dead Army, craving live human flesh which they need to survive.

Dr Cyrus, the inventor of the drug Lucid, and Max will join the Lucid Killers. They have taken a perfected form of the drug Lucid which allows them to see the Dead even as they hide amongst the living. Now the Lucid Killers must use their newfound abilities including increased intelligence and focus, quick healing of their own wounds and incredible strength and speed to stop them."

Okay... Here is my take on the comic book:

Front Cover - The illustrations on the front cover show that there will be some action promised in the interior pages of the comic book.

Inside front cover - The story starts here, with the first page!

Splash page - Not used as a splash page, but instead is the 2nd page of the regular story...

Interior pages - No ad pages, and contains 24 additional pages of storyline.

Inside back cover - The credits page for this issue #1, along with the link to G2Comics.com.

Outside back cover - The Ka-Blam Digital Printing girl ad for the printing company.

So what did I think of this comic book, after reading through it?

I found that the storyline was fine, although starting the story on the inside front cover threw me off just a bit! 

The pencils by Miguel Guerra and the inks by Michael Brewer meshed well together.

The coloring by Sanju Nivangune was just a little heavy on the red for the blood that spewed throughout the storyline, for my tastes.

There was no credit for the lettering, which was done pretty well.

The story's premise was okay, and did set up the continuation story for the next issue.  However, I'm not for sure on how many issues this series will be...

My comic book grade for this first issue is a Very Fine / Very Fine Plus (VF/VF+) 8.25 out of a possible 10.0 comic book grading scale. 

Here is where you can purchase the comic book, straight from the publisher, for the $5.00 cost, including shipping.

Here is the link to the Facebook Fan Page for G2Comics! Check it out and give it a 'Like'!

Here is a more up-to-date background on James:  "JAMES PINARD is the creator and writer for "LUCID WORLD," which has been published by G2 Comics in 2012 and Blue Collar Vigilante Studios. He is a partner in Blue Collar Vigilante Studios. His background is in writing short stories and screenplays before he moved into the world of comics. He has written numerous screenplays, including "DARK TRINITY," and has had short stories published in the Pulp Empire Collection. The short stories "CREED" and "DEARBORN" can be found in Pulp Empire Volumes 1 and 2. He has also created and worked on multiple comic book series’ besides "LUCID WORLD," including the comic series versions of "DARK TRINITY", "DIVINE DEATH" and "CREED" which is also based on the short story of the same name. He has recently begun work as a writer on a new comic series project titled "BLOOD BAT," and is the creator and writer for another tentatively titled "THROUGH THE PAST DARKLY." 

My thanks to James Pinard for bringing this issue to my attention!

Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On...   Cosmic Force #4  From Carter Comics!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3651 - This comic book was presented to me at the recent Long Beach Comic Con Expo, that I review blogged here.

Allen Carter, pictured at the top right of this blog, brought me up to date on what he was doing, and mentioned that I probably had not seen the comic book he is shown holding, as it is brand new as of April of 2012.

So what is the book about?  Here's the publisher's POV of what the comic is about:

"This is it: the first showdown between the future Cosmic Force, and the government officials now equipped with advanced wrist weaponry. Unfortunatley for both of them, this battle does not happen in private, as the rest of the city later discovers what's going on. Who wins the battle? How does the public react? And do our fivesome get closer to finding out what may have happened to them in the two years that they can't seem to remember? One word: Read!

While watching a meteor shower, five strangers are struck down and seemingly killed by five stray meteors. They later resurface with superhuman abilities, but also with a loss of two years since the celestial event. Having been declared legally deceased by the rest of the world, the fivesome try to come to terms with their new existence, all while avoiding government agents who are mistaking them for invading aliens."

Okay... Here is my take on the comic book:

Front Cover - The tag line, 'The End of How It All Begins...' hits me that this must be the end of the first story arc.

Inside front cover - List of credits & brief background info.

Splash page - Not used as a splash page, but instead is a part of the regular story...

Interior pages - No ad pages, and contains 42 pages of storyline.

Inside back cover - The in-house ad for another of Allen's comics, 'Damn Tourists'..

Outside back cover - The GarvinArtMedia.com house ad, from Allen Garvin Carter.

So what did I think of this comic book, after reading through it?

I found that the storyline was fine, although a 'splash page' probably should have been utilized as the first page in the comic book...

The artwork by Allen was fine, with a good mix of panels for the pages.

There was a lot of small text for the lettering, which probably could have used a larger sized font to be more readable.

The story's premise was fine, and I liked how the story arc ended.

The interior pages are in color, which helped in getting the storyline across to the reader.

My comic book grade for this fourth issue in an ongoing series is a Very Fine / Very Fine Plus (VF/VF+) 8.25 out of a possible 10.0 comic book grading scale. 

Here is where you can purchase the comic book, straight from the publisher, for the $5.99 cost.

My thanks to Allen Carter for bringing this issue to my attention at the 2012 Long Beach Comic Con Expo that took place on May 12th!

Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On...   HeroTown #1 of 3 Talking Man  From Integrity Comics!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3650 - This comic book was presented to me at the recent 2012 WonderCon in Anaheim, that I review blogged here.

I have already blogged about 'H-Town' by Chris Perguidi and Allan Angel that I picked up at the 2010 Comic-Con International: San Diego as seen in this review blog.

Chris, pictured at the top right of this blog, brought me up to date on what he was doing, and mentioned that I probably had not seen the comic book he is shown holding.

Here is my take on the comic book:

Front Cover - Three of the most important figures of World War II overlook the mass of heroes and villains that are part of this comic book.

Inside front cover - List of credits & ordering page info.

Splash page - Not used as a splash page, but instead is a part of the regular story...

Interior pages - No ad pages, and contains 20 pages of storyline.

Inside back cover - The 21st page of the storyline, with a 'To Be Continued' tag in the bottom right hand panel.

Outside back cover - The Ka-Blam Digital Printing house ad.

So what did I think of this comic book?

I found that the storyline was fine, although a 'splash page' probably should have been utilized...

The artwork by Allan Angel was fine, although most of the pages were standard nine panel sized pages.

There was a lot of copy (text) on the pages... Which for a first part of three issues, might have been a little 'heavy' in scope for a first issue of three planned.

The story's premise was fine, and I have interest in seeing where Chris and Allan take this in issue #2.

The interior pages are in color, which helped in getting the storyline across to the reader.

My comic book grade for this first issue of three planned is a Very Fine / Very Fine Plus (VF/VF+) 8.25 out of a possible 10.0 comic book grading scale. 

Here is where you can purchase this comic book, straight from the publisher, for the $5 cost including shipping.

My thanks to Chris Perguidi for bringing this issue to my attention at WonderCon!.

Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On...   The WonderCon Souvenir Program Book  From March of 2012!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3649 - This First, I want to say that this blog isn't a typo.  I became ill during the 2012 WonderCon and had to go in for emergency surgery right afterwards.

So no, this blog isn't a typo, it is just that I forgot to blog about the program book that was given away free to each of the attendees of the 2012 WonderCon that was held out of the Northern California area for the first time.   The WonderCon in 2012 was held at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California.

First, I want to say that although the front cover is pretty sharp looking, due to artist Ryan Sook, featuring the new versions of DC Comics New 52 heroes... I'm thinking that the cover probably should have been the 50th Anniversary of one of the Marvel Comics characters that started in 1962, say like the Amazing Spider-Man!

That aside, the inside front cover is a DC Digital Comics full page ad, and then the splash page is the 'welcome page' to WonderCon 2012.

Pages 2 & 3 are the table of contents, and the info you would need to know when attending the WonderCon that took place back on March 16th - 18th.

Page 4 started off the listing of the 'Special Guests' and that feature ran until page 13, along with a few ad pages.

Page 14 was the 'cover story' on Ryan Sook, which gave me what I wanted to know about him.

Around the Booths:  Exhibitor Listings started on page 18 and ended on page 38, along with some ad pages.

The full color feature section titled:  WonderCon 2012 Quick Guide was next, and was very helpful tucked in the middle of the program book!

Page 59 had WonderCon 2012 Games & Tournament Schedule. The next two pages had other gatherings during the weekend listed.

Page 62 started the Programming Schedule for Friday, and went through Saturday, ending with Sunday... Ending on page 80.

Page 82 had the Anime Schedule, which ended on page 85.

The 7th Annual Los Angeles International Children's Film Festival listings were shown from page 86 - 88.

The WonderCon / Robert A Heinlein Blood Drive page was on page 90.

Pages 92 & 93 had 'Welcome To Anaheim' with a map of the area.

The final pages were ad pages.

So what did I think of this program book?

Well.... It wasn't as big as the Comic-Con International: San Diego's annual program book for starters.  But then again this was only a three day con, and not a 4 day + preview night con.  Plus the program fulfilled all the major requirements that a program book should.

Maybe I was looking forward to full feature length articles like the San Diego con has each year...

But, considering that the program book was a 'freebie' given away to all attending guests... It did the job prefectly well!

So I'm giving it a Very Fine / Near Mint (VF/NM) 9.0 comic book grade, out of a possible 10.0 grading scale.

Check your usual sources for copies of this program book if you lost yours, or want one for yourself even though you didn't attend
