Howdy all!
Every month it seems like Image takes more and more of my money. Most of my favorite current books are from Image. I'm currently reading:
Bitch Planet
ODY-C
Sex Criminals
Saga
Lazarus (probably my single favorite title, month in month out)
Pretty Deadly
Wicked + Divine
I know there are a few series coming up that I'm going to check out too, but all I can think of at the moment is Paper Girls (which I'm ridiculously excited for...I've missed Cliff Chiang's amazing art since his WW run ended). Also, I have read and dropped Velvet, The Fade Out, and Rocket Girl. I also picked up Kaptara #1 but am still on the fence about whether I'm going to continue...
I'm going to give Kaptara a couple more issues. I'm not blown away, but I am having fun -- it's like reading the adventures of Eric from the old Dungeons and Dragons cartoon, but in spaaaaaace!
Currently the Image portion of my list is as follows:
Black Science
Bitch Planet (Might be dropped soon)
Deadly Class
Low
Southern Bastards
Chrononauts
Walking Dead
The Fade Out
I'm still bummed Mercenary Sea got canned.

One thing to bear in mind, though: the series requires a lot of re-reading! It's an extremely complicated story. It's in the same vein as something like Primer or Mulholland Dr --- mind-bending story. I've re-read the entire series three times --- I never do that. The story is put together very well. You think you have some idea about what's going on then, in one issue, everything turns around. It's a fun book...
[QUOTE=Turn the Page;1189533]I read somewhere back that they ended up cancelling the series, glad to know issue 9 is still in the works! Hopefully it won't be the last.[/QUOTE]
I hope not either! It's such a cool, great looking book.
