Grendel: Behold the Devil #0: I love Matt Wagner’s work; I have ever since his early work on Grendel and Mage. I truly believe he’s one of the most under-appreciated and underused creators in the comics world (next to Art Adams). So, when I heard that he was returning to his original devil, Hunter Rose, I couldn’t wait to see if the same old (black) magic would be there. It was. Matt Wagner tell an elegant and violent story in 6 pages without leaving the reader in a lurch. A+

Grendel: Behold the Devil #1: Why do I cheer for the devil? Grendel is an evil figure, a monster who enjoys the bloodshed, yet here I am excited to be reading about him again. I doubt I would buy sad clown painting by Gacy or the serial killer collectable cards that were so popular in the early 90′s, so what is it about Hunter Rose I like so much? This is a must have series! A+

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #9: Faith is one of the most complex characters in the Buffyverse. She has fought for evil, dodged her burdens by attempting suicide, been redeemed… or so we think. How close is Faith to becoming the next Dark Slayer? Does she love and/or hate Buffy that much? A+

Sadly, though, there was no Gutsville #3 this week. Me are sadness.

So, the South Koreans (oddly referred to in the article as “SKoreans”) have cloned cats AND made them glow in the dark. That’s pretty damn cool, but I’d like a cat that gave off heat and could be set like a thermostat – from “bed-warmer” to “turkey roast”.   I’d really love a cat that could shoot lasers out of its eyes, though I’m betting the dog wouldn’t.
