Reverend Cross Book 1 review!

 For some reason Facebook won't let me post a link to Comicbits On Line, so I have reposted it here so people can still read it... 

"REVEREND CROSS: BOOK 1 – Review by Terry Hooper on Comicbits On-Line!

The first three issues of Reverend Cross have sold out but have been collected into a new trade paperback version with 25 pages of brand new Reverend Cross action. It's available to buy now of course and it has a specially commissioned cover by Vince (Harker/Clock Strikes!) Danks. With art and stories by Atlantisvampir, Jason Dennis, Gabrielle Noble, Patrick O'Connor, Andrew Richmond, John A. Short and Grant Springford!

Reverend Abigail Cross the first ever femalevicar action hero. Licensed by the Church of England to kick demon ass! This collection contains 12 stories... 4 of them new! Hitler has escaped from Hell and only Cross can stop him!

Gabby Noble -she brought us Oktobriana versus Vladimir Putin so why not Cross versus Hitler? Incredibly Noble's art is getting even better.

Patrick O'Connor -art wise this is probably the weaker of the strips but still good fun.

Jason Dennis -the art here is lovely. The character designs look good and the composition -spot on.

Atlantisvampir -first thing I thought was "Manga". The whole point of an anthology comic is that you get strips drawn by different artists and so this fits in well and if I complain its because I want to...overall it is not that bad.

Grant Springford -first thought: "It looks like an animation cell. Is that bad? No. What it shows is that the mix of artists works and the page above is a lot better than some Marvel Comics art I've seen over recent years (and I am not kidding).

Is it a good package (as we publishers call it)? Yes, the mix works and you get 100 pages so not bad  at all. The glue binding everything together (get me!) is John Short and his stories and scripts. They have the right pacing of action and a good smattering of tongue-in-cheek gags that Roger Moore would have loved as James Bond. 

Short does one thing that the pretentious artistic babies do not understand ("I'm waiting for the HBO TV series offer!") and that is that comics are fun. Entertainment. In the world we live in escapism is something we need and this is what Short has been doing: creating good fun and entertainment. Believe me if this was bovine excrement I would not be pulling any literary punches.

Recommended? Yes."

Helga Frankenstein: The Halfmoon Killer ON KICKSTARTER NOW!

NOW ON KICKSTARTER! 

 

A new exploit for HELGA FRANKENSTEIN (the patchwork daughter of the infamous Victor Frankenstein!) and SISTER GENEVIEVE (vampire nun!) in the hidden European land of GOLGOTHICA (where ungodly creatures of every shape and kind, living in relative peace with mortal men!)

A series of mysterious abductions and murders have beset a nearby town. They seem to have all the hallmarks of rogue werewolf attacks, but strangely don’t coincide with the full moon. Could a half-wolf-half-vampire be to blame? The villagers have called on a lupin bounty-hunter to slay the killer!

Can even Helga Frankenstein survive an encounter with the monstrous creature behind the attacks? Find out in ‘The Halfmoon Killer’ by writer John A. Short & illustrated by Gabrielle Noble!
