Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On:   Doctor Atlantis Volume 1 The Trade Paperback (TPB)!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3692 -   Well... Here's yet another comic book that I found recently from our five days at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego, (aka San Diego Comic Con or SDCC). 

That comic book is actually a "trade paperback" that I found at the Rare Earth Comics booth at Comic-Con.

Here's what this trade paperback is about per the publisher's promo:

"Doctor Atlantis Volume One is in stores the this July!

Follow the steampunk adventures of Dr. Julius Fowler as he discovers strange new lands and does battle with monstrous creatures in his exploration of the endless sea."

I'll start my review next...

Front Cover - Pretty good front cover, IMO.  Crab creatures fighting a seafaring man.  Gives me an idea as to what the interior pages should be like...

Inside Front Cover - A full page sheet of the credits... With Ian Ally-Seals & Carl Mefferd being the cretors.  Ian is also the Editor-In-Chief, with David Robles as the Art Director, Douglass Hansen as Director of Producrtons, and Tim Durning doing the Cover Colors.

Splash Page - A nice illustration of what is actually the start of Chapter One, or issue #1 of the Doctor Atlantis comic book series.

Interior Pages -  Are printed in black and white only... The only disappointing thing in this book.  After seeing what Tim Durning did on the front cover, it would have been nice to see this TPB with color interior pages.  The 3 chapters presented flow well, and make for a good storyline.  Sad to say that the TPB is continued in the next volume...

Back Interior Pages - A couple of special features... 'Concept Art', 'The Life of a Page', and 'The Many Faces of Fowler' are included.  Not for sure if these were printed inside of the comic books also or not.

Inside Back Cover - 'House Ad' for Rare Earth Comics with a link to their web site.

Back Cover - The three front covers to the three comic books reprinted here are shown in color.

My take on this TPB? 

Well... You know what?  I liked this TPB!  I thought at first it was a 'graphic novel', not realizing it was a TPB.  The black & white interior pages were the only minor drag on this TPB. 

The artwork was fine, and the storyline was darn good!  It was kind of like 'Steampunk' and 'Pirates' put together... The artwork was sort of 'cartoony' and a little exaggerated at times.  But it fit the storyline! 

My rating for this TPB?  A Very Fine / Near Mint  (VF/NM) 9.0 out of a possible 10.0 comic book grading scale.  Thanks to Ian Ally-Seals for bringing this TPB to my attention at his booth at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego!

You can find this TPB for sale at the Rare Earth Comics web site.

Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On:   Andie And The Alien The Graphic Novel!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3691 -   Well... Here's yet another comic book that I found recently from our five days at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego, (aka San Diego Comic Con or SDCC). 

That comic is actually a "graphic novel" that I found at the Bliss On Tap Publishing booth at Comic-Con.

Here's what this graphic novel is about per the publisher's promo:

"by Bliss on Tap Publishing
written & created by Brian Phillipson & Phil Phillipson
art by Alex Nino
color / 108 pages

From the creators of God the Dyslexic Dog comes an extraterrestrial retelling of the classic Aesop's fable "Androcles and the Lion"...

Over 500 years ago, an alien spaceship crashed in the undiscovered Americas.

The little alien was rescued by the local natives.

In return for saving him, the alien promised to protect the natives from foreign invaders by placing a force-field over the Americas -- preventing exploration and colonization of their land -- and altering the course of history as we know it forever.

500 years later, in a world without the United States of America, the Nazi's have just won World War II and rule absolutely.

Until one day, a captured British scientist named Andie, with the help of Albert Einstein (of course!), hatch a plan to rescue the alien and save the future from the Third Reich."

I'll start my review next...

Front Cover - I thought that this front cover was very fine, as the title was 'Andie And The Alien'.  Little did I know what the interior pages were going to be like!

Inside Front Cover - A full page pinup of what appears to be Nazis... Nazis???

Splash Page - A simple illustration of what appears to be a child and the alien.

Interior Pages -  Hey, this graphic novel really rocks!  A great alternate version of world history, where the Americas are never developed by the European powers!   And the 'Why' they aren't developed is kind of cool!  I find the storyline to be fascinating, and the art by Alex... Well it is darn good!  But wait... The storyline seems to wrap up a little 'too' quick, and then there are five full page pinup pages... What's up with that?

Inside Back Cover - Another illustration by Alex.

Back Cover - Alien spaceship and Nazi symbol on building... What's going on?!

My take on this graphic novel? 

Well... Even though the storyline ended just a bit too abruptly for me... I have to say that I found this storyline to be a fascinating one!  The characters were well written, the artwork flowed smoothly, the lettering was placed well, etc.  The only thing is that the storyline wrapped up a little too quickly at the very end for me.  Not for sure about the placement of the end scene in relationship to the rest of the story.  But other than that... This graphic novel had everything else going for it!

My rating for this comic book issue?  A Near Mint  (NM) 9.4 out of a possible 10.0 comic book grading scale.  Thanks to Brian Phillipson for bringing this graphic novel to my attention at his booth at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego!

You can find this graphic novel for sale at the Bliss On Tap Publishing web site.

Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On:   Menthu: CCI 2012 Exclusive Editions Parts 1 & 2!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3690 -   Well... Here's yet another comic book that I found recently from our five days at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego, (aka San Diego Comic Con or SDCC). 

That comic is actually two comics... 'Menthu: CCI 2012 Exclusive Edition' Parts 1 & 2.  These were a limited run for distribution at the Comic-Con.

A while back I review blogged Robert's 4 issue Limited Series on Menthu, as seen in this blog from November 11th of 2009.

Okay... Back?

Here's what this comic book is about per the publisher's promo in Part 1:

"Welcome to Black Inc! Imprints Year of Comics.  And thanks for picking up this preview of MENTHU's next episode. With all of the digital & material options for your money, thank you for investing in this effort.  Your help and patronage are very welcome.

Please know that though you're reading what amounts to the first half of Menthu's adventure with Trouble Man, you're still only seeing the narrative's initial stages.

This IS NOT an undersized copy of rough drawings or brief concept art cobbled together or a 5 or 6 page snippet from an undone story.  You're holding all 23 pages from the advent of Trouble Man's first chapter.

By the end of 20112, you'll see the story in its final stages--fully inked & colored.

But so much for this.  Please enjoy the story."

Okay... There's more in the Part 2 of this two part preview comics package.

But I'll just go to my review next...

Front Covers for Both Part 1 & 2 -  I've presented a photo of Robert Roach holding both comics in the top right of this blog.  Plus shown a larger image of Part 2 at the top of the text piece.  The front cover for Part 1 is just a little 'busy' for me... But the Part 2 cover is right on!

Inside Front Covers - Both Parts have a message from the Publisher, Robert, of which I keypunched Part 1's above.

Splash Pages - Part 1 doesn't have a splash page, but Part 2 does...?  Okay, I'll let that go...

Interior Pages -  As stated above, these preview editions are not in color, so I'm making out the pages in black and white.  I like Robert's artwork... But the artwork is a little out of the panels on some of the pages.   I get the storyline... Not bad at all. 

Publisher's Page - Part 1's page is a little bit of info on the first issue, and what Robert intends to do with the rest of the series.

Publisher's Pages - Part 2 takes two pages to bring more info to the reader.

So... What's my thoughts on this two issue preview?

I'm thinking that the two issues give enough to understand what the storyline is about, and conveys a satisfying story as well.  The artwork is fine, and I'm looking forward to the colorized version when it is printed.  There are six issues planned for this limited series.  So I'm looking forward to seeing them.

My rating for this comic book issue?  A Very Fine / Near Mint  (VF/NM) 9.0 out of a possible 10.0 comic book grading scale.  Thanks to Robert Roach for bringing these Special Extended Preview Editions to my attention at his booth at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego!

You can find these comics at the Hometown Productions web site. Please note that the web site is going under some reconstruction at this time.

Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On:   Life in the 1940s - Volume 1

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3689 -   Well... Here's yet another comic book that I found recently from our five days at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego, (aka San Diego Comic Con or SDCC). 

That comic is 'Life in the 1940s'.   As seen at Alison Doran's booth at the Comic-Con, as pictured above!

Here's what the publisher has to say about this comic book:

Written and Illustrated by Alison Doran

Standard Comic
Black & White
Page Count: 24
POD

Aspiring jazz horn player finds himself inducted in the U.S. Army, and lost in Europe. Based on a true story.

Twenty-something guys living in the 1940s trying to figure things out.

Okay... Here's 'My Take' on this comic book:

Front Cover -  I first walked past the booth because there was very little at the front table.  However, I did a 'double take' on the front cover, not knowing what it was about.  To me, this simple illustration with the large title caught my eyes.

Inside Front Cover -  Has the 'Forward', which is okay... pure and simple.

Splash Page - Not used... The first page goes right into the storyline, dated December 1942 in Attica, New York.

Interior Pages -  The pages are all black and white... Yet this black and white coloring fit the 1940s scheme of things, so I was okay with it. The storyline seemed to wander just a bit, but by the time I reached page 24, (the end of the story), I was caught up in the story!

Inside Back Cover - A color presentation of Volume 2 is shown, along with the url to IndyPlanet.com where you can pick up this issue, and the mailing address of the Publisher.

Back Cover - The Ka-Blam Girl's ad page for the printer.

All in all, I found that this period piece of the early 1940s, along with the war in Europe, made a good story.  The lack of color interior pages did not matter to me.  Alison Doran appears to have done all of the work on creating this first issue, as I don't see any other credits.  A fine job, and I would be interested in seeing the second volume when it comes out...

My rating for this comic book issue?  A Very Fine Plus (VF+) 8.5 out of a possible 10.0 comic book grading scale.  Thanks to Alison Doran for bringing this issue to my attention at her booth at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego!

You can find this item for sale at Indy Planet!

Michael D Hamersky On Comics Presents His Take On:   The Untold Origins Of Invisible Scarlet O'Neil!

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3688 -   Well... Here's yet another comic book that I found recently from our five days at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego, (aka San Diego Comic Con or SDCC). 

That comic is 'The Untold Origins Of Invisible Scarlet O'Neil'.  Truth be told, I hadn't heard of this comic strip / comic book character before meeting Michael A Gordon at his booth at the Comic-Con!

Here's the Wikipedia entry for the history of the comic strip.

Okay... Back?

Here's what this comic book is about per the publisher's promo:

"As part of the (web site's) launch, a 32-page history entitled The Untold History of Invisible Scarlet O’Neil will be available for sale on line. This first-ever official history features previously-unpublished artwork, photos, and exclusive historical information not available anywhere else. It was compiled by Atlanta-based Atlantis Studios, a well-known sequential art studio that is also working with Russ Stamm, Jr. on a new graphic novel retelling of Invisible Scarlet O’Neil’s classic adventures.

“By the time I was born in 1946 my father was already a well known syndicated cartoonist and his feature character, Scarlet O’Neil, was six years old”, said Russ Stamm, Jr. in a recent interview, “I was fortunate to watch my father at work and see the dedication, energy, and love he put into his art. It is my hope that through this website a new generation can enjoy his work, and get a preview of what she’ll look like in her new incarnation!”

Okay... Here's 'My Take' on this comic book:

Front Cover - Like I said above, I hadn't heard of this comic strip / comic book character before seeing Michael A Gordon at his booth... And I'm sure that most of the readers of this blog haven't either!  So this is a really good intro page for those finding out about the 'Invisible Scarlet O'Neil' for the first time!  With the character prominently shown on the front cover, in front of comic strips of her past.

Inside Front Cover -  Which is 'A Brief Introduction from Russell A Stamm Jr., son of the creator of the invisible Scarlet O'Neil'!   This is a good intro, and helps set up the issue.

Splash Page -  I must tell you, that even though this is printed in comic book format and size, it truly isn't a comic book!  It has a lot of text with photos / comic strips / etc. on each page.  So the 'splash page' asks:  'Who Was The Invisible Scarlet O'Neil?'.  A good start!

Interior Pages - More on 'Invisible Scarlet O'Neil'!  Her past history and her now current day history... Because the last three interior pages are from the new graphic novel, which I have yet to read, and hopefully will be interested enough to review blog!

Inside Back Cover - 'A Word of thanks', which is an acknowledgment to those that helped put together the info that this special issue covers.

Back Cover - A picture of the then upcoming graphic novel!

So... For me, this special issue had it all!  The origin, the history, and the fact that there is a graphic novel in the works at the time of the printing of this comic book.

My rating for this comic book issue?  A Near Mint  (NM) 9.4 out of a possible 10.0 comic book grading scale.  Thanks to Michael A Gordon for bringing this issue to my attention at his booth at the 2012 Comic-Con International: San Diego!

You can find this item, along with the graphic novel at the Invisible Scarlet O'Neil web site.

And don't forget to 'Like' the Facebook fan page for the Invisible Scarlet O'Neil!

Plus don't miss checking out the American comic books on Invisible Scarlet O'Neil at the Grand Comics Database!  Yes, Harvey Comics published it from December of 1950 - April of 1951!

Oh, and here is a video that was created to promote the comic book!

And finally, the features that Invisible Scarlet O'Neil appeared in comic books... There are more than what you think there would be, at this link!
