I’ve missed writing reviews but don’t quite have it in me to write a long review of everything I bought this week. Instead, I bring you exactly Twitter-length comic reviews. (Be thankful they’re not in haiku. I might still do that someday.)
Hellboy: The Wild Hunt #5: Worth the wait, yet now I have to dig through piles of comics to remind myself what was going on. Still love Hellboy vs. Irish Myth, though.
DMZ #44: No Future: Ryan Kelly drew Zee! Also, the most haunting DMZ story in a while — deviations from the main story are often more compelling than Matty is.
The Unwritten #4: Shift to twisted Hitchcockian suspense-horror comic here. And killer line: “Stories that hit the world like bombs.” My favorite new series?

That’s how it always was with me and any Hellboy series. I always had to have all the issues on hand while I was reading the latest so that I could go back and look through them to remind myself what was going on. That’s why I’ve just switched to trades with Hellboy. Much easier to read all at once.
