Image Comics Solicitations for September 2017

LAST DAYS OF AMERICAN CRIME, VOL. 1 TPB - Sounds kinda interesting, if kinda stupid. But I have no clue who Tocchini is (did he do the bad Uncanny X-Force series? Because I don't remember him from Remender's run) and Remender is more miss than hit with me.

Tocchini did part of the Remender's run (the Captain Britain Corp part if I remember correctly).

But careful, Last Day of American Crime is more likely to miss than hit.

I liked it a lot. Tocchini's art is great (also does Low with Remender), especially in the OHC they put out a couple of years ago. Not the best thing Remenders done but I'd recommend it.

Yep, that was my second thought. That was easily the weakest arc for me, both in terms of writing and visuals. Not sure if I'm a fan of Tocchini's art in that case, and it says something taht they're the only artist I don't remember from that run. I mean, I'm not even a fan of Phil Noto's more recent stuff, but I at least remember him.

I'll probably end up borrowing it and buying it if I like it enough.

Eternal Empire -- it's not Alex and Ada, although it's got Luna's artwork: less characterization & conversation than A&A, from a different writer, but it looks beautiful and does have potential (currently issue 2).
Kill or Be Killed -- at this point y'all probably know 'bout this'n. Bang! Good'n.
Lazarus -- the world our USA is fast becoming. It aint politically pretty.
Southern Cross -- they've left the characters I was following, and I don't care as much for these at present; still, it's pretty good mystery in space. Has to get better though: on the do-I or don't-I border.
Stray Bullets -- Did I really NOT SEE Stray Bullets in your lists preceding this one?!
Can't be-- you're considering
Last Days of American Crime, which I thought got kind of boring kind of fast, and not listing Stray Bullets on your to-buy lists? You Lazarus readers-- you Kill or Be Killed readers-- what're you afraid of!? [winky smiley face, ok?] Sure, once you like the characters (which happens fast), it's the scariest comic book out there; sure it's graphic black and white; sure, it's deliberately non-chronological; sure, there's lots to catch up on-- really: Go borrow volume one from the library or where-ever. RIGHT NOW, comics readers. And add it to your pre-order lists.
